The role of university counseling centers today now supersedes the original role of providing educational/career guidance and now includes the roles of gaining multicultural competency, treating increasingly severe mental illness, and developing crisis/disaster plans. With the increase of pressure and workload on university counseling centers, either the increase of funding and/or a focus on preventative measures seem to be two probable directions in which these counseling centers may turn. As the college student population continues to transform, what do you believe are the most pressing issues that the fields of postsecondary guidance, student affairs and university counseling services must address if they are to effectively meet the needs of the students and the university as a whole?
