- psychomugs 4y agoMany of those you listed were, at least at my university, actually understaffed in my opinion, especially mental health services. Our department director of grad studies told me that the counseling center went through double-digit turnovers in just a few months. Students almost have to compete for appointments the way they’d compete for seats in a class. The cynic in me thinks that the student-run and -staffed peer counseling program was the university putting a band-aid on the issue while they continued pouring resources into brand management.
