Filing a Complaint
A complaint is a request for assistance with a problem, conflict, concern, or issue that negatively impacts students, employees, the community and/or the College. Please keep in mind that providing all the information requested on the intake form will help prevent delays in the assessment of your concerns.
- If the complaint is not a violation of policy, law or administrative procedure (AP), ODR will assist the complainant in resolving the issue with the appropriate college resource, employee or employee group (i.e. employee relations, supervisor, campus designated contact person,etc.).
- If the complaint demonstrates a violation, or potential violation of policy or administrative procedure (AP), ODR will begin a formal resolution process. This process could include investigation and/or coordination with appropriate college contacts.
For more detailed information, please see the ODR Complaint Review Process.
