UT Statistics

I was not able to find any statistics about use of the Counseling & Mental Health Center or any other UT-specific stats. If I track any down, I'll add them here. You can drill down to the state level, however, using the SAMHDA data in the Find Statistics box on the "Find Information to Support your Recommendations" page.
