村花论坛 employs an online designed to assist the University in promoting an environment that fosters civility and mutual respect for all. Members of the 村花论坛 community may use the online form to report incidents of bias, misconduct, and harassment. One does not have to be a member of a specific gender, sex, class, or protected group in order to be a victim of bias, misconduct, or harassment. Additionally, reporters do not need to be victims of bias or misconduct themselves: this form can be used by bystanders to report incidents that they have witnessed or of which they have knowledge.
It should also be noted that not every聽incident can, or should, be considered "bias-related". You may聽find that in the course of discussion, particularly in the classroom, you will be faced with ideas and content that may challenge your current beliefs, values, and lived experiences. It is recommended and strongly encouraged that if an incident arises聽during the course of a class/academic聽discussion, you first address it with your faculty member, peers, or whoever was involved in the initial聽incident. We believe that part of the growth process is learning how to have difficult discussions around tough topics and finding resolutions to those issues.
