Mediation
The process is voluntary and informal, and may make the need for more formal grievance processes unnecessary. No written complaint is required. However, if you do have a formal complaint in process, mediation may also be used as an alternative before continuing in the formal grievance system.
Mediation is:
Voluntary - It's your choice. Both parties decide if it's appropriate.
Informal - You do not need to file a written complaint.
Confidential
What you say goes no further. Information discussed in the mediation process
is not shared and cannot be used in other areas unless all parties agree.
Impartial
Trained faculty, staff or student mediators are assigned
from a pool of volunteers appointed by the Chancellor.
No Cost
All mediation processes are free.
