Interview 2

Josh 26 ~ Uk Dining/Janitorial Staff - UK Counseling Center

1) How much do you think students use the counseling center here on campus?
"I would most definitely say a decent amount. I know I used to acquire counseling for some of my own personal problems and this facility is probably used more than most people think."

2) Did you know about the counseling center prior to this interview?
"Yes, I have seen people visit the facility many times and I drive past it daily coming to and from work and on and off campus."

3) Do you know of any services offered at the counseling center?
"I know a few friends of mine who used to attend drug and alcohol counseling there and they received adequate help."

4) Does a counseling center help keep peace and order on campus?
"To a certain extent, yes, because some kids these days have personal problems so deep in which they may attempt to harm themselves or others."

5) Do you believe the counseling center should be student resource or both a student and staff resource?
"I believe it should be available to anyone and everyone in general. Everyone has personal problems and should have some confidential way of dealing with them."

6) Would you feel comfortable enough to use the counseling center if you had any personal problems?
"It honestly just depends because some things to me are so personal that I don't want to share them with anyone even though it would be the right thing to do to get help. It just depends on the situation."

7) Do you think it would be interesting to work in the counseling center?
"For me I think it would be really hard trying to listen to how upset and stressful people's lives are because it would be very challenging to not bring those problems home with you after work."

8)Do you think the students receive all of the resources they need here on campus?
"I think the university does a really good job of providing the needs for its students. Students have virtually any and every resource they could possibly need right here on campus with easy access."

9) Do you know anyone who could use the help of the counseling center?
"Yes I have many friends and family who could use the care of the center, but I am unsure if this resource is available to them."

10) Did this interview help you stay aware of what is available to students on campus?
"Yes it did, but I was already informed of this resource a while back."
