In short, it’s life-changing.

HOLISTICALLY HEALTHY Many people think about “wellness” in terms of physical health only. Wellness, however, is much more than physical health – it is a full integration of physical, mental and spiritual well-being that leads to a high quality of life.

DePauw’s Lilly Physical Education and Recreation Center encapsulates our commitment to your wellness. Work out in Welch Fitness Center, then grab a smoothie at Blend smoothie bar on your way to class. Go for a swim or get up a game of basketball. Watch your Tigers compete in Neal Fieldhouse and Erdmann Natatorium.

And with our integrated partnership with Hendrick’s Regional Health, a beautiful new Health Wellness Center that houses private counseling rooms and an onsite medical clinic, a 520-acre Nature Park with miles of hiking trails to feed your soul and healthy lifestyle programming, we have the “whole you” covered!
