ICS developed the Anonymous Concerns & Comments Reporting system to:

  • increase awareness and educate the community, not to punish or call out individuals
  • provide resources and support for the reporter (via auto-respond message)
  • provide an anonymous outlet for your experiences
  • guide community-wide education on issues that arise through the reporting system
  • flag any issues/people that repeatedly appear in reports and elevate any repeat issues of particular individuals to ICS leadership
  • create a more inclusive and welcoming community

The system is managed by volunteers from the ICS Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity Committee (IDEC).

This Reporting System is not designed to provide individual resolution and support to mitigate harms from bias and microaggressions. Situations where you need to file a misconduct report to 欧美口爆视频 include sexual misconduct & violence, stalking, discrimination, and harassment. Individuals who have been subjected to protected-class discrimination or harassment, sexual assault or other forms of sexual misconduct, intimate partner violence (including dating or domestic violence), or stalking have several options for reporting through 欧美口爆视频 Boulder鈥檚 Office of Institutional Equity and Compliance (OIEC).

For issues specifically involving employee misconduct, please听contact the Human Resources Behavioral Intervention Team & Threat Assessment听迟别补尘.
