The situation at UNT Dallas is not unique. Mental health advocates say many universities and colleges around Texas do not employ enough mental health counselors. The National Association of School Psychologists recommends that the counselor-to-student ratio sit at 1 for every 500. Getting closer to that number will take more investment.
