Jeff Prince
Jeff Prince, director of Counseling and Psychological Services at the University Health Services, has been elected a Fellow of the American Psychological Association.

Prince is recognized as one of the nation’s foremost authorities on career counseling. He’s particularly interested in career-interest assessment and has championed its importance during his 15 years at Berkeley. “A huge part of a college student’s mental health is related to how his or her career plan is developing,” he says.

Prince will address the association at its national conference in August 2004.
