About the Department of Counseling and Higher Education

Understanding the world, communities and people is the thrust of the Department of Counseling and Higher Education (CAHE). We are committed to the best practices in the preparation of educators, advocates, and leaders in the fields of counseling, higher education and student affairs.

Students, faculty and the community are attracted to our department because we are committed to understanding the past, advancing the present, and modeling for the future what graduate preparation should be for professionals involved with individuals, groups and organizations in a global community.
