Student Affairs created the Ad Hoc Mental Health Services Review Committee in the Fall of 2007. Working in a variety of settings and covering a wide demographic, the Mental Health Services Review Committee's two primary objectives are:

1. To answer the question: Is the College currently addressing the needs of our students by providing adequate mental health services?

2. To review policies and procedures related to student mental health. Do we have reasonable policies regarding leaves of absence and risk to self?
