Ombuds

The Office of the University Ombuds is a safe and confidential place for all members of the UC community to talk about university related conflicts, issues or concerns. Our office staff will listen to your concerns and help you identify options for successful resolution.

The Office of the University Ombuds engages in a variety of informal conflict resolution methods, including:

  • mediation, 
  • negotiation, 
  • consultation and 
  • coaching.

We provide guidance and information regarding any applicable university formal grievance processes and help explain university policies and procedures.

Our staff provide workshops and training programs for campus organizations and will work to tailor a program for individual groups or departments.

The ombuds office is always available as a resource. You can contact us with confidence that you will be treated with respect, fairness and confidentiality.
