Often a workshop or group is the preferred way of exploring and coping with particular concerns. A variety of workshops, classes, skills-building groups, support groups, and therapy groups are offered throughout the year to help students enhance personal effectiveness and cope with the demands of college life. Crisis Intervention is available twenty-four hours a day. All Counseling and Student Development Center services are available to all enrolled students. Faculty and staff may use the Center for consultations and may participate in workshops as topic and space allow.
Every effort is made to see students for individual appointments in a timely manner.
However, there may be as much as a two to three week wait for an individual appointment. Students experiencing an emergency situation should make this known, so that they may be seen as soon as possible. When appropriate, referrals may be made to local counseling agencies.
