FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What types of behaviors should I be on the lookout for? What behaviors or concerns might indicate that the student should contact Counseling Services?
There are many types of behaviors that students may display that can be concerning. A primary thing to keep in mind is if this behavior is odd or different for that student. Sudden changes can indicate higher levels of stress or distress. Increased irritability, not paying attention, coming to class intoxicated (or suspected intoxication), verbal aggression and lack of contact could all indicate a concern as well. Any student that makes comments about wanting to harm or kill themselves, or other people, is to be viewed as an emergency, and Counseling Services should be contacted immediately per your Mental Health Emergency Protocol. For additional training on this, contact Counseling Services.
