Quick Reference Guide to
Student Services and Support
Use the Quick Reference Guide to get information about campus resources and services. The Guide is separated into two sections. The first section contains links to university resources related to a specific student issue or topic. The second section is a phone directory of resources by office.
The Quick Reference Guide addresses barriers to academic success typically confronting college students. The resources mentioned are not limited to academic issues; rather, they encompass issues related to personal, interpersonal, academic, and vocational identity development. The Guide is designed to inform you about valuable campus resources relating to a particular need, concern or issue, so that you can help connect your son or daughter with the appropriate office or department at the University.
The Quick Reference Guide is adapted from the Counseling Center Retention Study Group's Resource Directory, compiled by Patricia Hunt.
