FAQ

Conflict Resolution cases are documented in Maxient, the university鈥檚 online secure case management system. Access to an individual鈥檚 files and cases is restricted to designated administrators only; other campus administrators do not have the ability to view files that are not under their purview. Administrators handling Conflict Resolution cases may only share details with university officials with 鈥渁 need to know鈥.  All relevant parties should be notified when a Conflict Resolution case is concluded, but specific details regarding any actions taken, disciplinary measures, sanctions, or consequences should remain confidential, unless legal requirements or the CSU Nondiscrimination Policy necessitate disclosure. 

We encourage reporting all known information about the incident when reporting a Conflict Resolution Incident Report. An individual can submit a Conflict Resolution incident anonymously, but response to the allegations may be limited and thus, may not fully investigated if the University is unable to gather more information. In these situations, the incident may not have any resolution and any appropriate actions by the university.
