Bethel College Wellness Center

Project Case Study

After years of housing its fitness facilities in the basement of Memorial Hall, Bethel College has taken a transformative step toward improving student health and well-being. Thanks to generous contributions from donors and alumni, the college built a new Wellness Center, designed to enhance both physical and mental wellness for students and staff.
