Counseling Center

Neon Nights is for students, by students.

You’ll raise essential funds to support mental health education and interventions while parading through campus wearing your brightest neon colors, glowing for mental health. Glow Zones along the way will keep everyone motivated until you arrive at a one-of-a-kind Neon Nights dance party! The event is open only to Bowling Green State University students, staff and faculty.

The Counseling Center strives to promote the psychological well-being of students from diverse backgrounds; to foster their development, learning, and academic success; and to provide appropriate intervention when students are experiencing serious mental health concerns. 

The Counseling Center welcomes all students. We aspire to respect cultural, individual, and role differences. Our goal is to create a safe, supportive and affirming climate for individuals of all races, ethnicities, national origins, genders, gender identities, sexual/affectional orientations, religions, ages, abilities, sizes, socioeconomic statuses, languages, and cultures.
