Mandatory reporting

All CU members who have the authority to hire, promote, discipline, evaluate, grade, formally advise, or direct faculty, staff, or students are considered "responsible employees" and are required to report alleged misconduct concerning or affecting any CU student or employee to OIEC. These employees are all required to take a course that helps them understand misconduct and how to report it.听

If you want to report for yourself, you can choose to file an anonymous report to OIEC.
