Sent on behalf of Dr. Cathy Marcum, Vice Provost for Faculty Affairs and Professional Development, and Jeff Cathey, Vice Provost for Student Affairs

Dear Mountaineer Students, Faculty and Staff,

As the fall semester continues, we recognize that stress is common while managing academic, personal and professional responsibilities. At App State, we have many resources available to help manage academic and social pressures and support your physical and mental health.

Office of the Dean of Students, Case Management
Counseling and Psychological Services for Students
Counseling for Faculty and Staff
Employee Assistance Program
Mountaineer Food Hub and Food Pantry Network
University Ombuds Office
Wellness and Prevention Services

Academic Support Resources

Disco Student Learning Center (tutoring, academic coaching, success strategies and more)
Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning for Student Success
Academic Affairs Resources and Forms (policies and procedures for faculty and students)
University Writing Center

Safety and Reporting Resources

App State Police
App State Emergency Preparedness
Office of Information Security

We encourage you to review these resources, share them with your friends and colleagues, prioritize your own well-being and offer support to others who may need it.

We also encourage you to remember Academic Affairs, Student Affairs, the Office of Access and Opportunity and App State Police. If you don’t know who to ask for help, our offices are key places where you can get connected to resources and support.

We wish you the very best for a successful and strong finish to the academic year.
