Confidentiality
Counselors are
under ethical and legal obligations not to release confidential
information. They cannot tell faculty or staff members when
a student is receiving counseling services. Counselors may
listen to information you want to share with them about a
student, but may only provide you with information about him
or her with the student's written permission. The only exception
is when the student presents a danger to self or others.
If you refer a
student to a UWRF personal counselor, you will be notified
that the student did attend an initial appointment only if
the student gives written permission to do so. If you would
like more information about a student's contact with Counseling
Services, you can directly ask the student. The student can
then make a decision about how much to reveal to you.
