Reporting an Incident
Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to report any incident that may need follow-up from campus officials. Examples include, but are not limited to, accident/injury, policy violations, CARE team concerns, crimes, etc. Any member of the campus community can submit an incident report. While IWU has elected to allow anonymous reporting, including a name is helpful for thorough follow-up. Incident reports are automatically routed to the most appropriate department such as Campus Police, Dean of Students, Student Conduct, Residential Learning, Center for Student Success, etc. Reports will be reviewed to determine appropriate next steps.
The
Incident Reporting Form can be found on the
Student Conduct page on the IWU Portal under "IWU Life".
Incident Report Tips:
- Do your best to include student ID numbers for all involved parties. If an involved party is not a student, please include their Driver's license/state ID number, if possible.
- Choose the corresponding violations as best you can. An administrator can alter these selections later if necessary.
- Try to use objective, factual language in the description of the incident. Keep in mind, the incident report may be read directly to an individual involved in an incident.
- If referencing any evidence that can be attached electronically, please attach it to the incident report (i.e. photos, videos, scanned copies, screen shots, etc.).
- If you would like to receive a copy of your report via email, please check the box adjacent to "Email me a copy of this report".
- Be sure to click "I'm not a robot" and then "submit report".
