Adjacent to the Jesse Philips Physical Education Center, the Shanks Health and Wellness Center is designed to encourage healthy connections between the body and mind as it features spaces that support both mental and physical activities and programs.

The center includes dedicated Abeles Wellness Room with TRX bands, medicine balls and dumbbells; the Koppes Spin Room with 17 bikes; the Krislov Fitness Studio with more than 50 exercise machines; and the Canavan Multipurpose Room for yoga and group fitness classes. 

It also has student lounge and two offices for staff. A conference room doubles as a drop-in space for the Counseling Center and a resource hub for the Office of Disability Resources.
