About Confidentiality
Levels of Protection of Private Information
Confidential means that the information disclosed by the student, verbally or in writing, will be maintained in a confidential manner to the extent allowable by law and will not be disclosed to anyone outside the office to which it is reported without the student's consent. Consent may not be required, however, in situations involving suspected child or adult abuse or neglect, court orders or subpoena or danger to self or others.
Private/Non-Confidential means that information disclosed by the student will be considered private but not confidential. For example, reports of sexual misconduct must be shared with appropriate administrators and the Title IX Coordinator so that the University can take necessary action to ensure the safety of the university community.
