To All UC Santa Cruz Students:
If you believe you have witnessed, or that you have been a target of, a hate-or-bias motivated incident on campus or while participating in a University-sponsored activity, you may bring the incident to the attention of the Hate-Bias Response Team.
A copy of the campus Hate/Bias Incident Policy can be found in the UCSC Student Policies and Regulations Handbook, and is located on the web at: www.deanofstudents.ucsc.edu/student-conduct/student-handbook.html.
Please describe the incident as specifically as you can. Include date, time, and location. If you do not know the identity of the person(s) who were involved in the incident, provide as accurate a physical description as possible, or the names of any witnesses involved.
Should you choose to report anonymously, please note that the Hate-Bias Response Team may not be able to take action. Should we not be able to take action, this does not mean that your report goes unnoticed, but rather is documented should any further reports come in regarding a similar incident. It is your right to remain anonymous and the Hate-Bias Team understands the need for anonymity.
The Associate Vice Chancellor for Colleges, Housing and Educational Services and the Dean of Students are available to provide support to members of the UCSC community. They serve as allies to, and referral source for, students who have been targeted or who have witnessed a hate or bias-motivated incident.
They are available to assist you with any questions you may have about your options, advice and/or referrals. You are not obligated to use your name. However, should you want the someone to investigate or follow-up; your name will be needed.
