Viterbo Undergrads: Check your email today for information about completing the Student Wellbeing Institutional Support Survey (SWISS). Fill out the survey by Dec. 4 for a chance to win one of seven gift cards: one $100 gift card, two $50 gift cards or four $25 gift cards. The SWISS asks you questions about your academics, social interactions, mental and physical health, and more. Results will be used to understand how the Viterbo can support all undergraduate students during your time on campus. For questions or more information about the project, contact Marci Iverson.
