To meet these needs, counseling is available on several levels. Every new student is immediately assigned a faculty advisor. Faculty and staff are chosen for their commitment to Christ and, therefore, are willing to help students as they work through questions of faith and life. In addition, Residence Directors are available as counselors for students' needs. If more intensive counseling is needed, college staff and faculty refer students through the Dean of Students to professional counselors.
All counseling is confidential.
In addition to psychological and personal counseling, students often find academic counseling and career counseling helpful. Tutoring services are available through the various departments and a Career Development Center is located in Thompson Hall. It is the responsibility of SGA to hear and address concerns expressed by the student body. SGA provides students with important leadership opportunities as well as an avenue to discuss issues and provide suggestions designed to resolve problems and concerns of students. It is an important voice within the college community.
