Keep Calm and Study On: BUBeWell, Be Online

LibGuide serves as a platform to support Butler University students, faculty and staff during remote learning through a variety of resources to engage students academically and socially.

BuBeWell

The BUBeWell webpage describes Butler University's model for the transformative and holistic student experience each student should have, both inside and outside of the classroom. It consists of eight dimensions: Mind & Body, Diversity & Inclusion, Meaning & Purpose, Social, Sustainability, Service & Community, Career & Life Skills, and Intellectual. BUBeWell offers toolkits for managing distress around COVID-19 and tips for staying healthy while working from home.

In response to COVID-19, Butler University has moved many BUBeWell activities, programs, and resources to a virtual format.

The policy extends beyond behaviors that take place in person to those that take place online. Both resources and reporting options for those who have experienced sexual misconduct are available. Reports can be made through the Sexual Assault Response and Prevention Office with this online form or via email to Maria Kanger, Butler University’s Title IX Coordinator or Sexual Response and Prevention Specialist Jules Arthur. Jules is a confidential resource that has a limited obligation to report to BUPD when specific crimes are committed.
