Reports of Bias

If you or anyone you know experiences bias-related discrimination or harassment, report the incident using this form. There are on- and off-campus resources designed to help you, and you may take a friend/advocate with you to use any of these resources.

This report is available for anyone who has been a victim of bias-related discrimination or harassment, which includes acts towards an individual based on physical/mental disability.  If you feel like you or someone you know has been a victim of disability-related discrimination or harassment, be sure to fill out the BMRT report.
