Report Concerns

How is the Care Team different from other places to report student behavior issues?

  • Contact the team for issues that can't be easily defined as a student conduct violation (which is reported to the Student Conduct Officer), or an emergency situation (which should be reported to the Seattle Police Department), or a perceived or present threat or imminent danger (which should be reported to Campus Security).
  • The team operates prior to a student issue becoming a conduct issue and/or emergency situation. If you have a concern about a student’s behavior, you may want to contact a team member. Note that counseling requires the student's participation. However, the team reviews the situation and determines which strategies to use and which college resources will be used to address the behavior.
