Your health and wellness matters

The Jacobs School of Music prioritizes the health of all students, faculty, and staff by creating an environment that promotes holistic wellness and through fostering a culture focused on open communication about wellness issues.

To support this mission, we established the Office of Wellness and Arts Health Initiatives (OWAHI) in 2023. OWAHI is your go-to resource for well-being at Jacobs. Need a friendly ear or financial advice? Our coaches are here for you. Craving connection? Join our vibrant community events and inspiring talks. We even infuse the arts into our outreach programs, recognizing music's power to soothe the soul. And yes, we offer wholesome snacks too! Drop by OWAHI – where your wellness is our priority.
