HAJI Mastan—a mere dockyard coolie in 1940 turned petty dock thief turned big-time smuggler—was the first of the real dons. His undisputed reign lasted for 20 years—from 1955 to 1975. Today's gangsters are the legacy of this one man. Dawood Ibrahim, then his trusted lieutenant, became his chosen successor. Haji Mastan, who ruled over the dock areas and Crawford Market, was on good terms with the other two major underworld names of his day—Karim Lala and Varadarajan Mudaliar.
Karim Lala, who ran gambling and liquor dens in the Dongriarea, worked in tandem with Mastan—but ran his empire independently. He was greatly respected, mainly because he was the most seniormost of the dons. The empire of Varada-rajan Mudaliar—a Robinhood-like figure—extended across the Tamil-dominated pockets of Matunga-Sion-Koliwada. His distilleries were the main source of illicit liquor in Bombay. He also ran gambling dens in Dharavi and, like Karim Lala, assisted Mastan frequently.
Inter-gang rivalry was unheard of because territorial integrity was upheld by the dons. To be sure, there were occasional altercations, but no large-scale war.
Things changed in 1980 when Yusuf Patel, a merchant who supplied silver ingots to Mastan to pay for the gold that was being smuggled into the country, played dirty. The silver ingots were rejected abroad because of their lead content, and Patel refused to compensate Mastan for it. Mastan's henchmen attacked Patel during the month of Ramzan in Central Bombay. Patel survived but his bodyguard was killed.
When Mastan decided to quit, he appointed Dawood—the son of a police constable—as his successor. Dawood took over at a time of rapid changes. Real estate was booming and the underworld, which had the necessary resources—both money and muscle—tied up with builders or financed them and generally took care of stubborn tenants and business rivals vying for coveted bits of property. Some builders, who craved for a piece of the underworld action, ended up with small plots in the neighbourhood graveyard.
There were other changes too. Gold smuggling gave way to drug deals. Instead of silver ingots, dollars and pounds became the mode of payment. Those disgruntled were paid in lead. Swords, knives, and the all-time favourite 'tamacha'—the desi revolver manufactured in Rampur—were being phased out by easily accessible AK-56s and AK-47s. By 1985-86, Dawood became the most powerful man in Bombay's underworld. He soon broke away from his mentor, Mastan, and carved out his own kingdom.
Haji Mastan passed away last year. Karim Lala and Varadarajan are no more. The only thing that remains unchanged is the breeding ground of the underworld—Central Bombay, whose narrow bylanes are the transit route for huge amounts of money, is still the hub of criminal activity.

Diagnosing cardiovascular disease
Lives are saved and quality of life is protected by rapid diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease. In particular, every minute counts in the treatment of heart attacks.
As the UK leader in in-vitro diagnostics, Roche is driving improvements in the early diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. We provide cutting edge technology to enable healthcare professionals to make rapid decisions on the best treatment.
Ourcobas h 232 cardiac reader system is designed to support on-the-spot decisions in doctors' offices, clinics and emergency wards. This state-of-the art portable device allows a single sample of blood to be analysed in just eight to 12 minutes.
The cardiac reader tests for a number of key substances that indicate cardiovascular conditions. NT-proBNP is a prohormone that is released when the heart is under stress. D-dimer is a substance that circulates in the blood stream for several days following a blood clot, or thrombotic event. Cardiac Troponin T is a specific and sensitive biochemical marker for damage to the heart tissue, so a positive test result confirms the diagnosis of heart attack.
In hospital laboratories, Roche's Elecsys® Troponin T high sensitive assay picks up even small increases in troponins. Its sensitivity and precision enables more people, including those without typical symptoms, to be identified and treated earlier. The test is available for use on cobas® and MODULAR Analytics serum work areas.

A contractor and two couples could be looking at a $700,000 fine for that massive sewage spill last summer at Lake Tahoe.
The Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board will meet this Thursday. If imposed, it would be one of the largest penalties ever levied for an environmental violation at the lake.
Facing that fine are Pacific Built Incorporated and Kings Beach property owners Geoffrey and Christine Davis, and Hans and Margaret Coffeng.
The spill happened on July 19th when Pacific Built workers accidentally punctured an underground sewer main in Kings Beach while installing a private pier for the property owners.
Officials estimate 120,000 gallons of raw sewage spewed onto the beach and into the lake.

Dance Academy boss Manoucehr Bahmanzadeh stripped of his licence
Posted: February 26, 2013|
Plymouth City Council chiefs have today stripped Manoucehr Bahmanzadeh of his licence for the venue, raided by police in 2006.
The licensing sub-committee heard evidence from police, the council's environmental health department and from Dance Academy owner Manoucehr Bahmanzadeh himself this morning.
Police highlighted the events leading up to a large-scale raid at the Plymouth Union Street nightclub venue in 2006, the subsequent trial at Plymouth Crown Court, and the failed appeal.
Environmental Health officers highlighted a 'shocking number of concerns' which they claim put revellers at risk of harm when the club was operating.

New questions over 'missing' £1million paid by Plymouth club boss
Councillors today decided to revoke Manoucehr Bahmanzadeh's entertainment licence - effectively blocking him from reopening the Dance Academy.
In August last year it was revealed that Bahmanzadeh still held a valid licence to operate the Dance Academy as a nightclub - despite the venue being closed since 2006 when it was raided by drugs police in an operation which saw the club boss jailed for four years.
In August 2009 Plymouth City Council's licensing committee was warned it would be in contempt of court if it removed the Dance Academy licence's before Proceeds of Crime proceedings had been completed.
The proceedings were completed in June 2011, but it appears the city council did not pick up on this information.
In January 2012 Bahmanzadeh won the right to appeal against his conviction, again putting the licence decision on hold.
Last November, Bahmanzadeh failed in his bid to overturn his conviction for allowing Ecstasy to be sold at the club.
At the time he said he has no idea what will happen to the empty, rundown building – which he still owns – following the failed attempt to clear his name.
After the hearing he said: "Whether anybody believes this or not, I did more than a lot of the other club owners in the city to target drug dealers. I got involved physically and was congratulated by the police. I personally threw out people who have since been convicted of serious drug dealing."
Despite failing to overturn his conviction, Bahmanzadeh's appeal against sentence was successful, reducing it from nine years to seven-and-a-half, effectively setting him free.
Prosecutor Duncan Penny made no representations at the Royal Courts of Justice, leaving Lord Justice Laws, accompanied by Mr Justice Griffith Williams and Mr Justice Males, to give his decision.
Lord Justice Laws accepted that fresh material showed how former head doorman Gareth Grimes was not a credible witness thanks to his own involvement in the drugs-related killing of Fernando Lopez in 2004 and his lies about being a Royal Marine. He said the court accepted his credibility was further undermined as it emerged that while working as a doorman at Bongogo's he had tried to sell drugs to an off duty officer and boasted of his £5,000 a week earnings.
However, while it bolstered Bahmanzadeh's claim he had fired Mr Grimes for 'taxing' dealers, and undermined Mr Grimes's view that the club's management did not appear 'enthusiastic' about searches, Lord Justice Laws said this did not damage the case and unduly influence the jury's decision, adding Mr Grimes's evidence was "by no means at the heart of the case".
He said Mr Grimes's claim to Tom Costelloe to being a former Royal Marine was merely to indicate his "physical presence" and would not have affected his credibility.
He reiterated there had been numerous meetings and correspondence with police about the sale and consumption of drugs at the premises prior to the drugs raid on May 7, 2006. In addition, he read out extracts of several Test Purchase Officers who repeatedly described the sale of Ecstasy in the club as "blatant", "overt" and "obvious" during Operation Jonamac which ran from December 1, 2005 to the club's closure.
He said there was "no doubt he [Bahmanzadeh] relied on others, but responsible, he was" and he "failed to take reasonable steps" to prevent the sale of Ecstasy.
He said it was also extremely doubtful if Bahmanzadeh would have been helped if the jury were told another man "was involved in drugs" and the evidence of Tony Pattinson, of the Harbour centre, who had said the drug taking in the club was "no worse than other clubs", would not undermine the conviction.
Mr Justice Laws said trial judge Judge Francis Gilbert's summing up, saying the music played at the venue was associated with the consumption of drugs, and the quantity of bottled water was not "unfair", adding "it seems to us that the judge was entirely entitled to refer to them."
He said the "essence of the Crown's case is, in our view, unaffected."
The appeal judges accepted that new sentencing guidelines would mean Bahmanzadeh's nine-year term should be reduced to seven-and-a-half. As he had been jailed in July 2008, it would mean he had fully served half his sentence.
Outside court Bahmanzadeh said: "There's still a lot of information which the courts and police have not disclosed. I don't know what will happen next. I still own the building [Palace Theatre], but what happens next I honestly don't know.
"We will have to see the implications of this on my licence. I'm going to think. Whatever I had thought [was going to happen] has turned out not right."

Earlier this week, David Cain of Raptitude.com posted a great comprehensive guide to creating a life checklist. As soon as I saw it, my template brain started firing synapses. With David's permission, I've created a Life Checklist Template to compliment his post. This is for those of you that prefer simplicity – if you want full-on-snazzy-life-list-social-sharing-web-2.0-glory, you'll probably like 43things.com better. Or use both!
Here is a short summary of David's life checklist tips:
- Make all the items clear, check-off-able things: There should be a specific moment when you can say "YES! I did it!" without question. Beware of "one chance only" goals, like "run the 2010 Boston marathon."
- Make sure each item has real, personal significance, and isn't just "This would be kinda neat." Ask "What specifically do I want to do?" Remember, this list *is* your life.
- Be audacious, but not unrealistic. Dream big, but consider the amount of time and money each goal will require. Add small items too.
- Avoid goals that depend on luck or other people's co-operation. Don't necessarily omit items just because you've already done them.
Two other great sites to visit for inspiration:
In an effort to join in the fun, I started a life list too. I don't feel I've reached my creative "dream big" peak yet, but it's a start!

BUY AVANDIA NO PRESCRIPTION, A Navy officer rolled down the window, and shouted at my father that the Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor. I rarely saw my father again for four years.

I wasn't in great shape, and I missed everything about America. But I turned it down. BUY AVANDIA NO PRESCRIPTION, A lot of prisoners had it worse than I did. I'd been mistreated before, but not as badly as others. I always liked to strut a little after I'd been roughed up to show the other guys I was tough enough to take it.

AMD Phenom processors hit delays
updated 12:35 pm EST, Mon December 24, 2007
Phenom CPU delays
In another setback for AMD, a forthcoming pair of its new Phenom processors have been delayed, sources out of Taiwan indicate. The company had been hoping to ship its quad-core 9700 and 9900 CPUs in early 2008, but these will now purportedly arrive sometime in the second quarter of the year. There is also a possibility the company's triple-core Toliman chip may be delayed, but as of press time, it was still expected to ship on schedule.
The issue with the 9700 and 9900 is said to be a glitch in the chips' translation lookaside buffers, which AMD has been trying to resolve for some time. The company cannot afford to delay too long; Intel is likely to release 45nm quad-core CPUs in the first quarter, beating out AMD's 65nm technology. The latter party has not made any official announcements of a delay. [via DigiTimes]

East Allegheny teachers offer district amended contract package
The president of East Allegheny's teachers union said her bargaining team offered an amended contract package to district negotiators during talks on Thursday.
"We believe that it is fair for both parties as well as the community," East Allegheny Education Association president Cheryl Ihnat said after a three-hour session.
Attorney Michael Palombo, the district's chief negotiator, could not be reached for comment at presstime.
The talks were the latest attempt to resolve a two-year contract dispute in advance of the scheduled Sept. 2 start of classes at district schools.
The 128 members of the association have voted to strike if no agreement is reached by then.
"They went OK," Ihnat said of the talks.
She declined to give specifics of her proposal, saying the district should have the chance to review it first.
The two sides are slated to meet on Aug. 27, but Ihnat offered to meet sooner if possible.
"The district is checking its availabilities," Ihnat said.
Each side handed out statements at Monday's school board meeting.
Both sides have gone online to make their case to residents of the district, which encompasses East McKeesport, North Versailles Township, Wall and Wilmerding.
The union's position is at sites.google.com/site/eaea4students/home, while the district posts its negotiation updates on a page of the www.eawildcats.net website.
A new item on the district website is an open letter dated Monday to Pennsylvania State Education Association UniServ representative Robert Myers.
East Allegheny Education Association is an affiliate of the state association. A clarification is stated, apparently to an issue that caused problems at two recent bargaining sessions.
Palombo wrote that the union erroneously assumed "that the district was intent on creating a 31-step schedule" for teacher salaries.
The last contract between the district and the teachers lists 16 steps, according to the state fact-finder's report that the district rejected and teachers accepted in 2012.
Two school directors alluded to that problem after Monday's board meeting but didn't elaborate.
The teachers have worked under terms of a contract that expired on June 30, 2012.
The district has said it is seeking a contract that would keep any real estate tax increase to a minimum, saying on Monday that its proposal would mean an increase from the present rate of 27.54 mills to 28.28 mills.
It said the proposal by teachers would raise taxes by at least 4 mills.

Branden Dawson has been more vocal, focused and energetic since returning from injury. / Rod Sanford/Gannett Michigan
SPOKANE, WASH. — Its a little early for nostalgia, what with an NCAA tournament to play and likely another year ahead at Michigan State, but Branden Dawson took a moment Sunday evening to indulge his sentimental side.
He posted a picture of himself and Tom Izzo from earlier that day, hands clasped and sharing a moment on the stage at midcourt after a 69-55 win over Michigan to win the Big Ten tournament and after Dawson was named most outstanding player of the tournament.
Here is what Dawson wrote to go with the picture: Me and one of the greatest coaches Ive ever played for. This man has pushed me through so much and not only is he a great coach but hes a Leader, A Father figure, Motivator, Teacher, and a Mentor. He believed in me even when I didnt believe in myself. I remember when I was ready to transfer after my freshman year but he was not going to let that happen. Thankful to have a great coach like Coach.
It has been a three-year transformation for Dawson, accelerated during the junior forwards nine-game absence with a broken right hand, then put on display for all to see during his beastly run through the conference tournament. His difference-making play is a primary reason East Regional No. 4 seed MSU (26-8) is a tournament favorite entering todays opener against No. 13 seed Delaware (25-9).
And it made him think back to that freshman season and all those nights in MSUs Wonders Hall with fellow freshmen Travis Trice and Brandan Kearney. They all talked about transferring, Dawson said Wednesday in Spokane, and Kearney ended up bolting to Arizona State midway through the following season.
It was something every freshmen goes through, Dawson said, and he didnt get as far as contacting other schools. But the year was a lot of frustration, he said, compounded when he tore the anterior-cruciate ligament in his left knee in the regular-season finale.
I just felt like I should have been getting more (playing time), Dawson said, even though I was starting. ... We werent used to coach (Izzo) and how he coaches, and how he was just always on edge all the time. We werent used to that coming out of high school and it was just a huge adjustment.
The book on Dawson then was the same as it is now extraordinary athlete with NBA-level strength and body who can guard anyone but struggles to shoot. Great when he plays with full intensity and focus.
The difference now is that hes doing it every game. An early-season loss to North Carolina was the last time Dawson was benched for sluggish play, but the right hand he smashed on a table and broke Jan. 23 suffered because coaches and teammates challenged him in a film session.
If he keeps playing like he did in Indianapolis and the Spartans advance this weekend, that day will be viewed more and more as something that ultimately benefited them.
Being out for those nine games made me realize a lot, Dawson said, mainly that if we want to be a great team, I have to play at the level I know Im capable of. (Izzo) was asking me questions like I was one of the assistant coaches. You could see everything on the court, every little detail, and it just made me realize a lot.
That he can dominate games without having plays called for him, for one thing. And now MSU is going more to Dawson in the post, allowing him to show some touch on mid-range shots. Hes also staking claim to some of the vocal leadership duties.
MSU associate head coach Dwayne Stephens said Dawson, like Denzel Valentine, has a goofball quality that endears them to teammates and helps bring everyone together.
What I think it comes down to is that you always see things a little different once theyre taken from you, Stephens said. You realize that what was taken away matters more to you than you thought. Since he came back, hes been approaching things totally different. And hes way more vocal on the court.
And hes more focused, said Adreian Payne. And hes more energetic, said Keith Appling.
And hes more emotional. Witness the way Dawson grabbed Izzo and lifted him into the air as he left the court late in the win over U-M.
Oh, man, it was just something that came to me, Dawson said. At first I was just gonna hug him. But weve been through so much ... so much adversity, so much criticism. Picking him up was just a sign of release.
A few minutes later, they were on stage together and the public-address announcer at Bankers Life Fieldhouse started to name the all-tournament team. Most outstanding player came last.
I just loved the way our team was pulling for him, Izzo said. I could hear those guys, Is it Branden? Is it Branden? He was excited. I was excited for him. Hes been through a lot. So have we. Hes still standing thats all thats important.

Hope someone is able to help me here, I have got a 11/04 Focus which originally had a Blaunpunkt sat nav/cd headunit (with 6 disc auto changer under passenger seat), I have put a new Pioneer headunit in which works great but the adapter kit i bought (correctly selected from year of car, from 'caraudiocentre.com') to connect the stalk control does not have the right harness adapter, I have spoken to them and they insist its correct but its clearly not.
I have included couple of pics to to show the wiring harness connector, its actually 3 small separate plugs which are slotted together to make 1, which then plugged directly into the old headunit, the yellow plug id the one that goes to the stalk control, the other 2 i believe goto the the cd autochanger.
I am trying to find the adapter to connect up the stalk control to new stereo and also run the auto changer.
Any help would be great.

As far as i am aware there is no steering wheel control adaptor for any Ford with the blaupunkt radio, nor is there anyway of wiring the Ford changer to work with a Pioneer headunit not just because of wiring but also because there software is just not compatiable.
If anyone knows any different it would be good to know for future occasions.
Hope this clears things up for you!

Thanks for the reply, there are various conversion kits on the market i have seen but none of them seem to be for the plugs i have on my wiring harness. There must be someone else that has changed their original headunit and come across this problem.

Liverpool hotels
What travelers to Liverpool are saying
Liverpool Rundown
If you book a holiday in any of the exceptional Liverpool hotels, you can count on a fun-filled stay in this thriving English city on the River Mersey. Dubbed the "cultural capital of Europe," this is the place to be if you love museums, the performing arts, and history, not to mention the fact that many Liverpool hotels are conveniently located near all the city's top attractions. Walk through Liverpool's fascinating past by touring such architectural treasures as The Liverpool Cathedral, St. George's Hall, and the childhood homes of Liverpool's famous sons, John Lennon and Paul McCartney of The Beatles.
You are likely to find that much of what you want to see is reasonably close to your chosen Liverpool accommodations. Stop by the legendary Cavern Club, one of the Beatles' early venues, to take in some live music. The iconic Albert Dock is another place you will want to explore and tour the world-class Tate Gallery and Beatles museum, browse the shops, and stop for tea at one of the cafés. Sculptor Antony Gormley's "Another Place" exhibit on Crosby Beach features iron sculptures cast from his own body. A low tide, this is one Liverpool sight you won't want to miss! Rest your weary feet at any of the ornamental gardens in Chinatown featuring the Chinese Arch and its intricate decorations.
The Liverpool John Lennon Airport, receives flights from various UK and European cities, but those flying from anywhere else must use the Manchester International Airport. Daily coach and train services run from London into Liverpool as well, making a London day trip a convenient option. Getting around the city can easily be done on foot or by taking a private taxi. Book now with HotelClub to enjoy our exclusive offers for our members. Membership is free, so booking your perfect getaway is easier than ever.

Join me to explore trails less traveled in the wild (I saw a ferocious chipmunk the other day) Wissahickon Creek part of Fairmount Park.
We hike at a moderate pace for about 2.5 to 3.5 hours. The terrain is hilly with lots of ups and downs. Each month I forge a different route or get lost in another area depending on your point of view. This is not a hike for those who want to go straight down one trail. We go up, down, around, back, hit dead ends, reverse course, and so on.
In warm weather we often eat outside at Top of the Hill which is just a few blocks away. In winter we often head to Whole Foods Plymouth Meeting which has everything from beer and burgers, to pizza, to mexican, to any other type of food.
CAUTIONs: If you haven't recently hiked at least 7 miles, then you should first try one of our shorter duration hikes. Area is HILLY; maybe some BUSHWHACKING.
Thanks for tracking our route Robert! Any idea how many miles we hiked? I'm new to the app stuff :)

What do you mean by "counseling?"
Counseling at the Student Counseling Service means sitting down with a highly trained and appropriately licensed Clinical Psychologist and talking about issues you are facing, in order to receive some resolution or satisfaction of these issues. There are a variety of different concerns that bring individuals to counseling including, but not limited to, loneliness, depression, anxiety, sleeping difficulties, eating difficulties, body image concerns, substance abuse, sexual orientation issues, self-injury, adjustment to grief, loss and transition, cultural adjustment, anger management, perfectionism, academic performance issues, family conflict, trauma, abuse and relationship concerns.
The Licensed Clinical Psychologists that staff the Student Counseling Service do not have faculty appointments or teaching responsibilities at RFUMS. This is to ensure privacy and protection for students.
Where is the Student Counseling Service located?
The address is 3471 Green Bay Road, just south of the main campus and directly south of The Woodlands apartment complex. The Student Counseling Service is located in the lower level of the Scholl Foot & Ankle Center. Turn into the driveway at 3471 Green Bay Road and take the RIGHT fork up over the hill to the parking lot. The main entrance is at the far end of the parking lot. Go to the receptionists at the front desk and let them know you are here for the Student Counseling Service. They will let us know that you are here and we will meet you in the waiting area. If you prefer to come directly to the Student Counseling Service, take the elevator just past the reception desk to the lower level of the building (LL). Signage will direct you to the Student Counseling Service. You will need your Student ID to get into the waiting room area.
What are the hours of operation? How do I make an appointment?
The Student Counseling Service is available Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, 9:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. Appointments can be made by calling the Student Counseling Service directly at 847.578.8723. Walk-ins are welcome between 3:00 and 4:00 p.m. on the days listed above.
Are appointments required to talk to a counselor?
Yes, appointments are required to meet with a counselor.
Students needing assistance with personal concerns can call 847.578.8723 to schedule an initial consultation appointment with a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. During this first appointment, you will complete preliminary paperwork and will meet with your counselor for approximately 50 minutes to discuss your presenting concerns and decide on a course of action that best meets your needs. During the initial consultation appointment, you and the psychologist may decide on one or more of the following options:
• Individual counseling at the Student Counseling Service
• Additional assessment at the Student Counseling Service
• A referral to another Rosalind Franklin University resource
• A referral to an off-campus agency or resource
• A referral to an off-campus practice for psychiatric consultation and medication
Please note that during times of the highest demand, the requests for counseling can outnumber our staff resources. At these times, we will work with you to obtain counseling services that meet your needs with an off-campus agency.
Individual Counseling
If individual counseling at Student Counseling Service is recommended, the student will discuss goals and length of counseling with her/his assigned psychologist. Counseling at Student Counseling Service is based on a short-term model, which means that the focus of counseling is on addressing presenting concerns and meeting the goals that are outlined for treatment. Sessions with your assigned provider are typically weekly and last for 45 – 50 minutes.
Assessment Services
For certain presenting concerns, additional assessment can be helpful in determining the best course of treatment. Some examples of these types of concerns are with eating related or substance use concerns. If you are dealing with either of these presenting concerns, your provider may offer additional assessment beyond your initial consultation appointment and could make a referral for additional services after the assessment has been conducted.
Crisis Services
During regular Student Counseling Service hours of operation (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, 9 – 6), a psychologist will be available to assist with personal crisis situations. Students are encouraged to come to the Student Counseling Service if experiencing a personal crisis to be seen at the first available opportunity during these regular hours of operation. A personal crisis is one in which there is no immediate danger of harm to self or others. Students, faculty, or staff can call for consultation and crisis intervention services for a Rosalind Franklin University student during regular hours of operation. A licensed clinical psychologist will be available via phone Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., for consultation at 847-247-6910.
What if I need help when the Counseling Service is closed?
Please note that anyone verbalizing intent to harm themselves or others should immediately contact 911 or go to the nearest hospital emergency room. After-hours, days when the Student Counseling Service is not open or on holidays or weekends, students are encouraged to take advantage of one of the following crisis and emergency service options:
Lake County Behavioral Health Crisis Line
Rosalind Franklin University's Department of Campus Security
847.578.3288 (manned 24 hours a day)
Security can be reached by dialing 3288 from any campus phone

Is there a cost to use the Student Counseling Service?
The Student Counseling Service is free of charge for all currently enrolled RFUMS students.
Who is eligible to use the Student Counseling Service?
The Student Counseling Service is free of charge for students, provided they are enrolled in the current semester (or the fall semester during summers). Unfortunately, we do not have the resources available to provide services to non-enrolled students. We are not able to provide marital or family counseling unless ALL participants are currently enrolled students.
Are my visits to the Student Counseling Service confidential?
Matters shared with Student Counseling Service staff are kept private unless you give your provider written permission to release specific information. There are a few exceptions to this strict rule. For example, if a provider becomes aware of child or elder abuse, or a threat of danger to the person seen or specific others, the provider is obliged by law to report this information to the appropriate parties.
Will my academic record include visits to the Student Counseling Service?
Visits to the Student Counseling Service are not part of your academic record, but are managed as a health record.
