The Purpose of the

in overcoming specific personal, interpersonal, or educational
problems.
- Provide opportunities
for students to develop self management, problem solving, and
leadership skills.
- Motivate students
to reduce harmful behavior and increase healthy, life-affirming
behavior.
- Provide education,
assessment, and consultative services in the areas of mental
health and well being.
In case of a life-threatening
emergency, call 911, or 9-911 from a campus phone. The Campus Police can be reached at 876-5202. Always notify your resident assistant of an emergency if you
