The KU School of Music values the health and wellness of each student and faculty member. Below are links to information concerning hearing protection, audiology testing, musculoskeletal and vocal health, and lastly resources for fitness on and off-campus. We encourage everyone to take advantage of the information provided here to better protect their career well-being and improve their health. We are all musical athletes. Wellness is a key part of being the best performers we can be.
