Mandatory reporting policies

All CU staff working with FCQs are mandatory reporters and are required to report violations of campus policies to the appropriate campus office:

Boulder: Office of Institutional Equity and Compliance

Colorado Springs: Office of Institutional Equity

Denver: Office of Equity

As part of this duty, Office of Data Analytics (ODA) staff run a text analysis of student FCQ comments at the end of each term, flagging comments that contain keywords that were compiled with the assistance of the Office of Institutional Equity (OIEC) at the CU Boulder campus.

After flagging, comments are reviewed and discussed by at least two ODA staff members. The review is to determine whether a student comment is reporting misconduct or if the comment itself is misconduct. Comments deemed reportable are then forwarded to the appropriate campus office.

The goal is to help promote a safe campus environment for students, faculty and staff.
