The University Ombuds Office provides an informal, timely, impartial, and confidential means of conflict resolution to students and the campus community, regarding student-related issues and/or concerns. Our goal is to foster a culture of community, safe and open dialogue, and encourage cooperative problem resolution on campus.

Why should students be interested in conflict resolution services?

Conflict is a part of life. Dealing with conflict as a student can be especially challenging. Someone skilled in conflict resolution techniques and familiar with the many facets of an academic institution can not only be helpful in assisting a student in overcoming adversity, but also prepare them with skills to help them better achieve a successful resolution the next time a conflict arises.
