Bias Incident Reporting 

Bias incidents are acts or behaviors motivated by the person's bias against any combination but not limited to identities such as age, ancestry, color, disability, gender identity or expression, genetic information, HIV/AIDS status, military status, national origin, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, or veteran status. While these acts do not necessarily rise to the level of a crime, a violation of state law, University policy, or the Student Code of Conduct, a bias act may contribute to creating an unsafe, negative, or unwelcome environment for the impacted person(s); anyone who shares the same social identity as the impacted person(s); and/or, community members of the university

Civil Rights Compliance Office 

The Civil Rights Compliance Office (CRC) is responsible for compliance with civil rights laws and University policy. Federal and state laws collectively prohibit discrimination based on protected characteristics, including age, citizenship, disability, national origin or shared ancestry, race, sex, gender, veteran status, and more. We serve the University by making it welcoming to all through education, compassionate response, and fair and timely resolution.

Suspended Operations

In the event of severe weather conditions or emergency situations, campus leadership will make a decision no later than 6 a.m. – earlier if possible – whether to suspend operations for the entire day or operate on a delayed schedule. When operations are suspended, classes are not held, administrative offices are closed and events and activities are cancelled.
