Relevant Excerpt

A campus climate concern can include actions that discriminate, stereotype, exclude, harass or harm anyone in our community based on their identity (such as race and ethnicity, gender and gender identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, language, culture, national origin, religious commitments, age, (dis)ability status, political perspective and other variables related to life experience). Concerns may stem from fear, misunderstanding, hatred, or stereotypes.  Behaviors may be intentional or unintentional.

Anyone who feels they have been affected by a campus climate concern is encouraged to make a report to Campus Climate Support (CCS) utilizing this form. CCS is not a disciplinary body, cannot impose sanctions, and does not require participation in any aspect of CCS’s work. CCS's purpose is to support students, faculty, or staff, and connect them to resources. A longer-term desired outcome is that over time these efforts contribute to the maintenance of respect and understanding among members of the University community, improving the campus climate for all its constituents.
