Hi, I’m interested in applying for the masters in counseling program, but I’m not sure if I should apply for the clinical mental health counseling track or the clinical rehabilitation counseling track.

I want to work with disabled individuals (and other under-served groups such as the LGBTQ+ community), but I don’t really want to do social work/vocational rehabilitation. My end goal is to work as a therapist in private practice.

I know both tracks eventually lead to LPC licensure, and what you do once you graduate is up to you, but I’m wondering if someone is in the CRC program do you have to focus on that for your 3rd year internship?

I also know the CMHC program is considerably more competitive, which is why I’m wondering if I should just apply to the CRC? I’m coming into this process with 2 master’s degrees which I completed concurrently about a decade ago. I have experience working with immigrants, refugees, and the disability community. I feel called to this career, and I’d love to chat with/hear from anyone who was deciding between the CMHC & CRC programs.

Hi all, I just saw a little white chihuahua running around near the rec center and then closer to natio near the water fountain. I tried luring it with a churu but no luck! I’m not the owner but please keep an eye out / if you see tue dog, it’s definitely lost ):

Are there any resources I could call about or is it a situation where that dog is SOL right now?

Anyone having issues signing into their student email? I reached out to IT about it, but wondered if anyone is experiencing problems too.
