One, the Center is open noon to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Walk-ins are welcome. Appointments are available at other times. Secondly, you may call the campus police at 432-552-2000, and then press 0. They will find a counselor for you. What about confidentiality? We believe that confidentiality is of major importance.

Issues may include roommate difficulties, loneliness, eating problems, abuse issues, family problems, depression, alcohol and drugs, and relationship issues.
