the three major councils and the IPC

structured in the right relationships?

Committee: Ad Hoc - Wellness, Health and Education
Presenter: Rachel Lanham
This committee is working in conjunction
with OIE to develop a survey website for employees to record
preferred fitness goals and activities. Merrilee Shopland
and Terry Mouchayleh, of the Professional Development Office,
have voiced support of this type program for ACC. Implementation
difficulties include that not every campus has an on-site
gym or fitness facilities. Proposals include providing employee
incentives such as discounts to Gold's gym, Yoga classes,
etc. Program benefits include reducing stress and reducing
insurance costs. This committee's goal is to have finalized
recommendations by January 2006. Other similar programs under
review offer employees 30 minutes per day, or 2 to 2.5 hours
per week to engage in fitness or education activities.
