Ohio State promotes a balanced lifestyle and provides information to all Ohio State employees about the 9 dimensions of wellness including: Emotional, Career, Social, Intellectual, Spiritual, Physical, Financial, Creative, and Environmental.

Several university organizations are highlighted, such as the Chadwick Arboretum and Learning Gardens, and the Ohio Environmental Leaders Institute.

Social
Employees learn how a socially well person has a network of support based on interdependence, mutual trust, respect and has developed a sensitivity and awareness towards the feelings of others. Several university organizations are highlighted, such as Community Partners, which identifies a list of service projects housed under Buck-i-SERV.
