Consultation
The staff of the Counseling Center provides professional consultation services to facilitate student success. In the past, consultations were provided to:
- Administrative Staff
- Tactical Officers
- Infirmary Staff
- Faculty Members
- Athletic Teams
- Cadet Officers
- Religious Staff
- Family Members
Consultation is provided within the context of the laws and ethics of confidentiality. Consequently, a counselor can offer individuals who are concerned about a student some recommendations regarding how to encourage the student to seek counseling. However, the counselor will not disclose to this individual whether or not the student has been receiving counseling unless the student has provided written authorization to release this information.
