    1. Alternatively, you can left-click on a track to select it and, on the new page right-click on a track and (on a PC) select Save Link As to save the file anywhere on your computer. 

     

    1. If you save the file to your computer, you can then burn it to a CD or add it to any mp3 player.

    There is no copy protection on these files, so you can listen to them on your computer, burn them to a CD, or add them to any device that can play mp3 files.  Contact Paul Mikowski, Psy.D., the psychologist in the Counseling Center who produced these files if you have any questions (pmikowski@ithaca.edu/274-3136).

  • If you've been wondering whether or not your substance use is becoming a problem, complete a free and confidential on-line screening today.

    The Counseling Center (Counseling and Psychological Services) maintains a link on it's homepage (http://www.ithaca.edu/sacl/counseling/) to on-line screenings for depression, anxiety, substance abuse, eating disorders and other mental health topics (http://www.ithaca.edu/sacl/counseling/onlinescreening/).

    The screenings are free and confidential.  The Counseling Center only knows how many people have completed a screening, not who has done so.

  • Assisting Students at Risk

    • The mission of the Assisting Students at Risk Initiative is to provide a central place for faculty, staff and students to communicate concerns when the well-being of a student or the safety of the campus community is an issue and to provide information and education to the campus community about risk issues and resources.
