A national sample of counseling center (CC) directors participated in a sur
vey concerning their centers' policies and practices as a way of assessing
the validity of M. S. Chisolm's (1998) criticisms of mental health care on
college campuses and opening a discussion about the future of such services
. Participants completed either a traditional or an electronic (E-mail) sur
vey. On the basis of responses from 114 CCs and clinical forms submitted by
81 CCs, results provided support for a traditional mail survey, difference
s between large and small institutions, and a lack of support for M. S. Chi
solm's criticisms of campus mental health care. Recommendations for campus
mental health services are provided.
