Office of Student Accountability & Conflict Response Drop-In Services
The Office of Student Accountability & Conflict Response (OSACR) hosts drop-in services designed to provide general assistance, such as answering questions about the conduct process, other OSACR services, as well as to assist in connecting individuals with resources across the University.
- In order for case managers to best assist, please first submit a Drop-In Request Form.
-
During the fall and spring semesters, the quickest way to receive general assistance is during virtual drop-in hours every Monday through Friday between 1:00 pm – 4:30 pm. You can access the drop-in Zoom meeting room here: Virtual Drop-In Zoom Waiting Room.
- You will be asked to first submit a Drop-In Request Form for the case manager to review.
-
During the summer session, OSACR does not host drop-in hours, however you may submit a Drop-In Request Form. A case manager will then review and respond within two business days.
Privacy
OSACR recognizes that parties and other participants are often concerned about the privacy of information. Student conduct records are considered education records and are protected by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). As such, information gathered by OSACR may be shared with those who have a “need to know” the information to facilitate the student conduct process, provide support to those involved, and/or make mandated reports (e.g., reporting sexual harassment or child abuse). The University may also need to disclose information to comply with the law (e.g., response to a lawfully issued subpoena or court order).
- For more information about retention and disclosure of student conduct records, see the Student Resources webpage.
