Nicole Brocato profiled for role in developing national student wellbeing assessment
Mary Christie Quarterly recently featured Wake Forest University director Nicole Brocato in “Interesting People Doing Important Work” for her role in developing Wake Forest’s Wellbeing Assessment and leading the work of the Wellbeing Collaborative. The Wellbeing Assessment was created by a multidisciplinary team at Wake Forest, and since 2017 it has been administered to over 35,000 students at more than 70 colleges and universities across the country. In addition to administering the survey and analyzing data, the Collaborative provides partner schools with training and interactive reporting tools.
The Wellbeing Assessment covers a wide range of dimensions, including meaning, purpose, belonging and engagement. The latest edition was updated to assess the effects of the pandemic and political and social tensions on wellbeing. Early results reveal that while most students think their schools are doing enough to keep them safe during the pandemic, students are feeling more stress this semester than last. Wake Forest University’s Wellbeing Collaborative continues to focus on creating inclusive and equitable models of wellbeing, identifying factors that support student belonging and understanding patterns of association between wellbeing dimensions.
More information is available on the Wellbeing Assessment website.
