Planning class, specialized advising, career tests and inventories, DISCOVER (a computerized career guidance system), and individual career counseling sessions. Academic counseling is available for those students who may be experiencing difficulties in their coursework. The Counseling Center conducts seminars and workshops throughout the year which cover a variety of educational and preventative topics, such as drug and alcohol abuse, conflict resolution, decision making, healthy relationships, and time management. DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY (D.O.P.S) D.O.P.S. personnel are available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week on the campus for the assistance of students and staff. The officers make regular rounds of the campus throughout each evening, as well as assist with parking during the daytime. In their normal foot patrol of the campus, both residence halls and academic buildings are checked to ensure that all buildings are locked/unlocked at the proper times. D.O.P.S. personnel may request identification of any unknown person on the campus. Any victim of any campus violation or crime may report the incident to D.O.P.S. personnel on duty or to the Director of Public Safety. Although the D.O.P.S. is available to investigate incidents and follow up on possible violations, it is not intended to be a substitute for local police. Students are encouraged to seek the assistance of local law enforcement when appropriate. HEALTH AND MEDICAL SERVICES Student Health Services supervises all personal and community health problems on campus. The Health Center is supervised by the University nurse for the treatment of minor problems. The University contracts with Cornerstone Care for the services of physician assistants who come to campus four days a week during the academic year. Referrals may be made to physicians at Cornerstone Care. All students attending Waynesburg University are required to complete a Medical History and be upto-date with all immunizations. In addition, all resident students are required to have a physical examination by a doctor of their choice prior to matriculation. All completed forms must be returned to Health Services. Insurance for accidents and sickness is available for all full-time students. This coverage is effective both on and off campus for the entire calendar year. A pamphlet describing the coverage and identification card are given to the student. Participation in this plan is optional. FOOD SERVICE All freshmen, sophomores, and juniors living in a University residence hall or University housing are required to take their meals at the University dining hall located in Benedum Hall or the Beehive Grill in Stover Campus Center. Resident students may select a ten, fourteen or nineteen meal plan. Changes in selection of meal plan must be completed in writing on the last business day before the start of classes. No deductions are made for students who eat fewer than three meals per day at the University or who are absent on weekends. Board fees do not include vacation periods or the period between semesters during which time the dining hall will be closed. A charge is made for guests. Students rooming offcampus may board at the University dining hall. Contact the Director of Housing for more information. Student Services publications contain additional information regarding the food service. AUTOMOBILES AND OTHER VEHICLES All sophomores, juniors, seniors, and graduate students are permitted to possess and operate a motor vehicle on campus. Certain students living in residence halls may be required to park their vehicle in restricted areas. Freshmen, unless they are commuting from home, are not permitted to possess or operate a motor vehicle on the campus without special permission from the Student Services Office. All students eligible to use motor vehicles are required to register their vehicle with the Department of Public Safety Office and display a current parking decal. University parking regulations must be observed at all times. The privilege of operating a motor vehicle may be rescinded by the University if the vehicle is not operated in accordance with the law, or if the operator endangers other students, or disrupts the educational process of the University.
