Anonymous Reporting
A Reporting Party has the discretion to exclude personally identifiable information, such as their name and contact information, in the form. However, please be advised, without presented contact information, we are unable to provide follow-up, and the University’s options for response may be limited.
Confidentiality
Because the University may have an obligation to address certain reports, we cannot guarantee complete confidentiality where it would conflict with the University’s obligation to investigate meaningfully or, where warranted, take corrective action. Regardless of the situation, personal information will generally only be shared with individuals on a need-to-know basis, in compliance with University policy.
Retaliation
Retaliation is strictly prohibited at the University, as outlined in the Office of Civil Rights & Title IX’s Policies, Procedures, and Practices. Retaliation may be experienced by an individual, whether actual or perceived, for having made a bias incident report to our office, participated in services or processes provided by our office, and/or supported a party utilizing services or processes provided by our office.
