Student counseling services
Last year, as issues related to mental health continued to surface on Auburn's campus and Student Counseling Services came under fire for long waits and unpublicized resources, University administration and the student government began to explore how to improve the University's resources for students' mental health needs. The SGA and the University administration commissioned a Task Force on Student Mental Health to determine how the University could better provide and publicize for resources and support on campus. The report released earlier this year found the University was ranked near the bottom when compared to schools of similar size. "It is important to note that the Task Force found that Auburn University currently ranks at or near the bottom with regard to the number of mental health counselors," the report stated.
