The Mission of the McKinley Health Center Advisory Board is to:

Serve as a liaison between students and the staff and administration of the Health Center.
Inform students of special health problems on campus.
Create awareness of both general and special services offered by the Health Center.
Promote the general welfare and health of the student community.
Review and evaluate programs, services, and policies of the Health Center.
Provide a mechanism for student consumer complaints, excluding any review of medical competence.
Participate in the selection process for all new professional staff, physicians, health educators, administrators, and such others as may be appropriate and timely.
Consult with the Director of Health Service on policies for the operation and management of the Health Center.
Offer recommendations for new programs or modifications of existing programs. (These policies shall in no way detail the actual practice of medicine.)
