Summary
The goal of this symposium is to share the results of four research studies aimed at promoting student academic success in a college/university context both via the development of campus wide resources and through course content used to address student mental health and wellbeing. These include 1) supporting students' learning, health, and wellbeing using online resources; 2) supporting the wellbeing of distance education students; 3) supporting student well-being from inside the classroom: scaffolding mindfulness and compassion training into curricula; and 4) creating a space for flourishing: a teamwork approach to adding well-being in the classroom.

Objectives
-- Describe mental health factors that impede student academic success at the college/university level
-- Show how promoting resilience and employing pedagogical practices both through campus wide resource development and through direct course content can promote improved wellbeing and student academic success
