Grievance Process

Students are encouraged to discuss their concerns with a staff member. Staff will attempt to resolve the issue/s causing concern by assisting the student in discussions with the faculty member, department, or program. Most situations are positively resolved through this process. If a satisfactory resolution is not reached, the student should notify the Office of Institutional Equity where grievance procedures are filed for all students, including students with disabilities.
