A common thread in these articles was that counseling service personnel should think strategically about how to meet the increasing demands for their traditional services while still being sensitive to the emerging priorities of the institutions in which they are housed.…”

“…Those services, programs, and personnel that are judged to be of a lower priority are unlikely to fare well in such an environment.

A primary responsibility for directors of college and university counseling centers is to explain to various audiences the multiple ways such units are of value to their institutions. This article reviews the history of how counseling center directors have been encouraged to develop and describe the work of their centers. Often overlooked are the contributions that counseling centers make to institutional recruitment, retention, and risk-management activities. Research that demonstrates the relationship between counseling centers and each of these functions is reviewed and some recommendations for counseling center directors are offered.

).Using qualitative research methods, the authors investigated African American college students' social climate experiences. Results expanded previous research on the college transitions and counseling needs of African Americans in predominantly White campus environments. A descriptive model was constructed that identified 4 features of African American student social adjustment to predominantly White campuses: (1) sense of underrepresentedness, (2) direct perceptions of racism, (3) hurdle of approaching faculty, and (4) effects of faculty familiarity. Counseling implications for preventive programs, developmental interventions, and consultation activities are presented. Advantages and limitations of using qualitative designs to examine African American student issues are also discussed.

“…Researchers monitoring the ever-changing political, economic and social realities of American higher education have noted the need for college and university counselling centers to continue to adapt their total service delivery systems to most effectively address the needs of these changing environments (Bishop, 1995;Crego, 1990). Stone and Archer (1990) offered a series of recommendations for concurrent innovations and limitations in service delivery by counselling center personnel.…”
