Campus resources for students
After the very extended spring break, school is getting back into the full swing of things. With Welcome Week events and classes starting, it may seem overwhelming. If so, Washburn University has done many things to help accommodate students and their needs to the best of their ability. Whether it’s going to the Rec to work off any quarantine weight, or going to the Student Health Center to get a check up, there are resources for anyone.
