SAN JACINTO – Mt. San Jacinto College unveiled health centers at its San Jacinto and Menifee Valley campuses this week to provide its 27,000 students improved access to medical services and mental health counselors.“We serve thousands of students and know that not every student has access to the health services they need,” Roger W. Schultz, Ph.D., MSJC superintendent and president, said. “By providing these services, including mental health counseling, we hope to further remove potential barriers that can prevent them from succeeding in achieving their academic goals at MSJC.”The college held a ribbon-cutting ceremony and open house for the San Jacinto Campus health center Tuesday, Aug. 27, and an open house at the Menifee Valley Campus health center Wednesday, Aug. 28.
