The Counseling Center is staffed with two full time males and one part time female Mental Health Professional.   Also included in the Counseling Center is a full-time Mental Health Professional-Disabilities Services Coordinator.    During spring 2008 semester, the Counseling Center announced the weekly Alcohol and other Drugs Educational Groups facilitated by part-time counselor Mrs. Diane Elder who is a Certified Chemical Dependency Counselor.   Flyers were placed through out the campus community announcing the group sessions.   I addition to the Alcohol and Other Drugs group, the Counseling Center continue to offer lectures and presentations in resident halls and in class rooms on various psycho-educational topics.   The number of lectures and presentations offered were 31 with 359 students in attendance.   During spring semester, there were 246 office visits by students and of this number, 51 students were referred from residence hall staff, Dean of Students and instructors together.   The Counseling Center takes pride in striving to meet the counseling needs of all students that reach out for help.   We make an effort to provide information to students that will help to prevent mental health and academic problems and ways to cope with situations that are sometimes not preventable.

The Counseling Center is extremely grateful to the Dean of Students, Hall Coordinators, Professors and students that made referrals and informed us of students that needed help but were reluctant to come in.   Your ongoing support is vital to the prevention and intervention of mental health wellness for the strengthening of academic success through counseling services.
