What is an Ombudsman?
Every member of the University - student, faculty, and staff - makes a commitment to strive for personal and academic integrity; to treat others with dignity and respect and to honor the rights and property of others. From time to time issues may arise that are not in keeping with our commitment to this goal. The Office of Student Ombudsman facilitates communication and assists students in reaching understandable resolutions.
