Campus Climate Support

We are here for students who have experienced behaviors, comments, or incidents that negatively impact their sense of belonging, inclusion, or well-being within the university community.

Your support team

While formal investigations are handled by the Equity, Civil Rights, and Title IX Office (ECRT), our Campus Climate Support team is here to help with any additional needs. Whether you choose to file a formal report or just need a safe space to talk, you can connect with us directly for:

  • reporting options
  • support and referrals
  • campus resources
  • safety suggestions
  • social connections

How to file a formal report

If you’ve experienced or witnessed a discriminatory or harassing climate concern and want the university to take official action, you can file a report directly with the Equity, Civil Rights, and Title IX Office (ECRT).
