If my student is homesick and talks about coming home every chance he/she gets, should I encourage them to stay on campus?
Yes. There are so many great things to do at the College at Brockport! Encourage your student to become involved in the numerous student organizations, activities, and events, and suggest stopping by the Brockport Student Government Office or the Campus Life Office (both located in the Student Union) for more information on the opportunities available. If you are concerned that your student is having trouble adjusting to college or you find they may need further help, you might want to encourage them to visit the Counseling Center where he/she could benefit from individual or group sessions, a workshop, or developmental programming. Sessions are confidential, and the highest ethical and legal standards associated with the profession are maintained, and are completely free of charge.
