UCLA Student Wellness Commission Details
The Student Wellness Commission (formerly Student Welfare Commission) was added to the Undergraduate Students Association Council in 1964 to meet the needs of addressing student health and general well-being. Since then, SWC has advocated for student health on campus through services such as evening vans, student health facilities (like the modern day Ashe Center), anti-smoking campaigns, free menstrual hygiene products, and health fairs. Currently, SWC continues to promote student well-being by its almost weekly programming of CPR classes and health symposiums. It also offers some philanthropic and community service events such as blood drives and Run/Walk at UCLA, because a well-rounded education cannot be obtained solely in the classroom. The commission has grown from a 40 member commission to a 550 member commission (staff and volunteers), and from having 7-8 programs a year to over 110 events and classes… and it is still growing!
