Your Questions About Reporting Answered
Reporting a concerning behavior starts with being well-informed about what you can
report and how these situations are handled through the EORR team at UW. For answer
to all of your questions, please visit our full
Frequently Asked Questions page
.
You can report any incident involving discrimination, harassment, sexual misconduct,
workplace violence, or other concerning behaviors that may impact a person's well-being
or violate UW policy. If you're unsure whether something qualifies, you're encouraged
to reach out to us at (307) 766-5200 or
report-it@uwyo.edu
—it's always okay to ask.
Reports can be submitted through the online
Report It form
. You may choose to provide your name or remain anonymous. After submission, the report
is reviewed by the appropriate office or team for follow-up. Support resources are
also available throughout the process to those who provide their contact information.
Once a report is submitted, the Equal Opportunity Report and Response unit will review
it and determine the appropriate next steps. The Manager of Investigations or designated
investigator will work with you to gather information on your report and provide some
resources that may be helpful to you. You are not required to make decisions about
moving forward with your complaint at that time. In fact, we encourage you to return
(or we will reach out) in a day or two to once again review all of your options and
decide on a course of action. There are certain immediate steps we can take to help
you feel safer and we will work with you to provide and coordinate the right options
for your circumstances. You may change your mind about participating in this process
at any time.
If you choose to move forward, the Investigator will work with appropriate offices
to ensure that you (the complainant), respondent(s), and witnesses are treated equitably
throughout the process and that respectful and timely communication occurs.
We understand how difficult it can be to come forward with a concern or claim. We
encourage candid and honest participation in our process so that we can identify the
right options and correct course of action. The University will make every effort
to keep the confidentiality of any person(s) reporting a claim and when possible will
keep the identity of an unwilling victim or witness confidential. However, we cannot
guarantee unqualified confidentiality as we must also balance the safety of other
members in our community. If we determine that there is the threat of imminent harm
to an individual or to the community, information may need to be shared and then only
with appropriate individuals. Complainants will be advised if information pertaining
to a claim is shared with individuals outside of the University’s investigative process.
There are certain individuals who, under the law and under specific circumstances,
are bound by rules of confidentiality. If you choose to report a claim to any of the
University resources listed, you may ask whether your conversation with them is privileged
under the law.
Yes, anonymous reports are accepted. The university responds to all reports, including
anonymous ones, but please be aware that withholding your contact information prevents
us from being able to respond to you regarding your report and can make it difficult
to fully review these concerns.
If you’re unsure, we encourage you to seek advice from whomever you’re most comfortable.
You may contact us at
report-it@uwyo.edu
or review our
full list of FAQs
if you are still not sure about filing a report. It’s better to ask questions than
to assume an issue is too small or not worth addressing. Every concern is taken seriously
and investigated by UW.
Yes. If you submitted a report and want to follow up, you can reach out to the Equal
Opportunity Report and Response team directly. If you provided contact information
in your report, someone will also be in touch with follow-up information.
You can support a friend by listening without judgment, encouraging them to seek help
and offering to accompany them to a support resource. The university also offers
free counseling services
to full-time students.
