Athletic Trainers Monthly Perspective
Well at Work
We're here for you!
UMD faculty and staff are invaluable to carrying out the mission of our university. The Division of Student Affairs Wellbeing Unit work together to help you live well and be your best in and out of work.

Wellness
Supporting Active Terps as they live well and thrive
Wellness is more than health. It is a way of living more fully. It involves taking responsibility for the choices you make each and every day—no matter how small—to take positive actions that fuel your body, engage your mind, and nurture your spirit. It is an intentional approach to healthful and active living that gives you the energy to embrace life and do what matters most to you.

Adventure Programs for Veterans
Get Outside with Fellow Veterans
Take a break from academics and paddle, bike, climb, or ski while building social connections with fellow veterans. These collaborative programs between the RecWell Adventure Program, UMD Veteran Student Life, and Team River Runner can introduce you to a new outdoor activity, provide you with a physical challenge, or help you and your family get outside and enjoy the outdoors.
Adventure Program Clinics
Learn the skills you need to go on your own adventures.
The Adventure Program hosts a number of clinics each semester to help Terps learn technical skills and build confidence for adventuring in the outdoors. Learn how to cook over a campfire, belay at the climbing wall, take care of your bike, roll a kayak, and more.
