Conduct reporting is the formal process of notifying a university or college’s student conduct office about a student or student organization’s alleged violation of the institution’s policies. It’s an essential part of maintaining a safe and respectful campus community.
The reports can cover a wide range of issues, including:
- Behavioral misconduct: like disorderly conduct, property damage, theft, or physical assault.
- Hazing: involving student organizations, athletic teams, or other groups.
- Sexual misconduct: including sexual harassment, sexual assault, and stalking.
With regard to reports of alleged Code of Student Conduct violations, university conduct records are protected by a federal privacy law called the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, therefore any information regarding the outcome of a report will not be shared without the direct written consent of the student(s) involved.

Non-Anonymous Reporting
Our incident reporting forms are for reporters who would like to be contacted about their report. Once the report is received, a university staff member will investigate the incident and determine an appropriate intervention/action plan for the student’s behavior, which may include a meeting with the student and others involved in the incident. Please know that you, and the witnesses you identify in the report, may be contacted to provide further information.
