Counseling
The Student Development Center offers the services of a full time, professional counselor to provide confidential personal counseling, crisis management, and adjustment/coping skills enhancement. With all counseling, emphasis is placed on self-development and personal growth. An effort is made to be responsive to the needs of traditional and non-traditional students. The Center offers programming throughout the academic year on problems/issues particularly relevant to college students. Students are encouraged to drop by the Center (located on the 2nd Floor, Burbick Hall) between 9:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.

Faculty advisors are consulted as well to help students relate identified interests with their academic aptitudes.
All A-B students are encouraged to utilize job search services offered through the Center. The Center maintains credential files (resume, references, etc.) for students using the service and assists students in preparation of their credentials. Programming is offered in cooperation with academic departments on topics such as resume and cover letter writing, interviewing, etc. Individualized counseling is also available.
