Reporting Concerns

While interacting with students across the college, faculty and staff may be confronted with situations in which a student is displaying concerning behavior. The Behavioral Intervention Team (BIT) Model is designed to assist them.

Behaviors of concern might be observed in a number of settings: in the classroom, at a service location or office, at an on-campus job, or during participation at an extracurricular activity. By reporting behaviors that are concerning, the Behavioral Intervention Team will be able to reach out to students to intervene, provide support, and connect them with resources that can assist them.

The Behavioral Intervention Team is a team that meets regularly to serve five major functions for the campus:

• Act in a proactive manner to assist students,

• Maintain confidentiality and handle all matters discreetly,

• Provide consultation and support to faculty and staff,

• Connect students with needed resources, and

• Recommend interventions or sanctions.

The BIT process does not replace faculty classroom management, disciplinary processes, and/or public safety responses to incidents.
