Conflict Resolution & Mediation

We understand that conflicts can arise in any environment, and addressing them effectively is crucial for maintaining a respectful, positive and productive environment. The OHRCRM is dedicated to providing guidance and resources to help you navigate and resolve conflicts in a constructive manner.

Conflict resolution and mediation are essential components of a healthy and thriving campus community. By addressing disputes and misunderstandings promptly and professionally, we can foster an environment where everyone feels heard, valued, and respected. Effective conflict resolution helps prevent escalation, promotes understanding, and encourages collaboration, ultimately leading to stronger relationships and a more cohesive community.

Resolution Process

  • A safe environment should be provided for individuals to voice concerns if they feel they have been mistreated, discriminated against, or harassed (Code-related).
  • Investigate and manage the fact-finding process for concerns in a consistent, timely, and fair manner.
  • Assist those involved in the resolution process to access additional assistance or support.
  • Personal Resolution
  • Informal Resolution
  • Formal Resolution

While the Confidential Intake Form can be submitted anonymously by not including personal identifiers, we do recommend that individuals include their name and contact information to allow the Office of Human Rights, Conflict Resolution and Mediation to address the concern fully. Anonymous submissions may limit the University’s ability to take the appropriate next steps to resolve the concern.
