September 18, 2019

University of Alaska's new wellness program is here! You'll find a lot of things that look the same, and some things are a little different.

You still need to take a health risk assessment and have a biometric screening but now we call those "point" activities instead of credits.

And for those who like to collect points, we're offering a special raffle later on for those who earn up to 12 points!
