Here are some tips to follow when responding to a student who is in distress:
Mandatory reporting for staff and faculty
Any sexual misconduct, intimate partner abuse (including dating and domestic violence), stalking, protected-class discrimination or harassment, or related retaliation disclosed to a university employee must be reported to the Office of Institutional Equity and Compliance (OIEC).
Confidential campus resources are exempt from CU Boulder’s mandatory reporting policy, including the Office of Victim Assistance (OVA), Counseling and Psychiatric Services (CAPS), Faculty and Staff Assistance Program (FSAP) and Ombuds.
For questions regarding these issues or the obligation to report, please contact OIEC at 303-492-2127.
