Behavioral Concerns
Are you aware of a student acting in such a way that detracts from the OCC community? We're committed to fostering a campus environment that is conducive to academic inquiry, a productive campus life and thoughtful study and discourse. Please review the classroom management response guide before submitting your concern.
Have you been, or seen someone get, discriminated against?
This isn't just someone being mean or not interested. Discriminatory Acts are occurrences where a student or group believe that they have been mistreated or discriminated against on the bases of race, color, national origin, shared ancestry or ethnic characteristics, their protected class status, or citizenship or residency in a country with a dominant religion or distinct religious identity. Should you be aware of an incident that may be discriminatory in nature, please let us know.
Bias Response Team
We're working to create an educational environment that supports diversity, equity, and inclusion. OCC recognizes that because of the unique ways in which hate/bias behavior effect the community, care for the community is important when responding to bias incidents. The Bias Response Team has been created to address the needs of the campus community and support those impacted by bias incidents.
Do you know someone who has been involved in an incident of interpersonal/ sexual violence (aka: Title IX)?
You may know it as sexual assault, rape, domestic or dating violence, sexual harassment, or stalking. At OCC we are focused on fostering a campus community where individuals are treated with dignity and where allegations of interpersonal violence are treated seriously and investigated thoroughly. Should you be aware of an incident that may be Title IX related, please report it using the button below.
