Spanish term or phrase: bienestar universitario
In the same paragraph as my previous question:

"Las areas que se consideran objeto de evaluacion en el proceso de acreditacion en los distintos sistemas se refieren con mayor o menor enfasis a la mision y proyecto institucional; los estudiantes y los profesores; la docencia, la investigacion y la extension; los egresados, el influjo sobre el medio; auto evaluacion y autorregulacion administrativa; organizacion, recursos fisicos y financieros. En paises como Colombia, Mexico y Chile se contempla **el bienestar universitario**."

Thanks for any help on this one.

The university's well-being


Explanation:
The metaphorical well-being of the university as a whole, the institution. As it says in the previous sentence, I imagine they mean this as including its organisation, finances, resources etc etc, NOT just the student body and clearly not its environment (where is there any indication of that)

As an alternative to well being you could also use "health" I suppose, in its metaphorical sense

overall soundness / overall wellbeing...


Explanation:
...(of the university community?...if you need to expand on it)..This would take care of the ambiguity.
