Getting help for a student you’re worried about: If you have a non-urgent concern about a Mary Baldwin University student because you’ve noticed changes in their behaviors such as a lack of personal hygiene, missing class or work, calling home more or less, isolating themselves, abusing substances or anything else you feel may get in the way of their ability to be successful in the university environment, please fill out a Student of Concern form here. There are resources on campus and in the local community for students and our Behavioral Intervention Team will work to connect them to help.
