What resources would I explore before contacting the Ombuds Officer?
• Speak directly with the party involved with your concern and try to resolve the issue. • If you are unable to resolve the issue directly with the party involved, advance to the next level of appeal (Department Chair, Dean, Director, Vice President, etc.). • Depending on your status (student, staff, faculty) consult the appropriate hanbook or Website (Golden Rule, Undergraduate or Graduate Catalog, Faculty Handbook, A&P and USPS Handbook).
