Social Connection Support
Staying connected and involved in the Western community while you’re away from campus and practicing social distancing is important to your well-being.
Thrive Online: Your Virtual Western Community!
Visit Western's brand new student community blog site - Thrive Online. Thrive online is a space for Western students to tell their own stories in their own words. We know that being socially connected and able to share our learning is a vital part of being able to thrive, and we believe it can also happen when we’re online. We’ll be posting stories written by Western students that help us celebrate, engage, relate, entertain, and educate each other.
If you want to be part of building this space and sharing your voice, visit our Contribute Page to find out how to submit your own post!
