关于行为报告

概述

目的

Northwest expects and encourages students to demonstrate a reasonable concern for life, 健康, 福利, 安全, and property of every member of the college community.  This is particularly true in the areas of self harm and harm to 其他人.  In the event that the University is presented with a credible report that a student has harmed herself/himself, 其他人, 有医疗问题, or has materially and substantially disrupted the functioning of 威尼斯人在线, then the University may take appropriate actions. 

Reports that are submitted regarding student behavior or concerns are submitted to a panel that represents a cross-disciplinary team of qualified campus professionals.  The panel will determine what type of assessment is appropriate, alternative interventions that are appropriative for the situation, or refer the situation for conduct purposes.  This panel is referred to as the 行为干预小组 (BIT) and they meet weekly to discuss reports and concerns.

学生的痛苦

认识困难学生

Stress is a natural part of all our lives and can be especially challenging to students in a university setting. Many students are successful in coping with stress, but some feel overwhelmed.

不寻常的行为, 出席率模式, 外观, or drastic changes in performance may signal that a student needs our help.

You may choose to approach the student personally and suggest options you have used before and/or strategies other students have found to be helpful. In other cases you may wish to note the issues and report them to the BIT. Whatever you choose, the goal is to get services and support to our students.


痛苦的迹象

  • 互动模式的改变
  • Direct statements indicating distress, family problems, or loss
  • Angry or hostile outbursts, yelling, or aggressive comments
  • 外表的变化
  • 不寻常的或夸张的情绪反应

Significant changes in academic performance or attendance may also rise to the BIT level- These should be reported through Early Alert to determine if there are other similar reports which may bring the concerns to the BIT level.


应对痛苦

Depending on your relationship with the student, you can address the situation directly or indirectly:

直接: You may choose this option if you have a good relationship or rapport with the student. 如果选择此选项,请确保:

  • 为了保密,私下交谈
  • Remind student you cannot guarantee confidentiality*, some concerns you are required to report
  • Express what you have observed and why you are concerned
  • Listen and understand the student’s perspective
  • Identify resources available to the student
  • Ask if the student has or has had thoughts of self-harm
  • Make the appropriate referrals to BIT or other resources
  • 告诉学生你的下一步

*Remind students you will only share with those who can help. If the student chooses not to share, report that interaction to BIT.

间接: If you do not feel comfortable addressing the concern with the student, you may contact BIT or University Police to share your concerns.

报告问题

Each situation is unique and requires a different level of reporting. Based on how you choose to respond to the distress and the information you learn, you may choose one of the following reporting options:

非紧急: Situations in which there is no imminent threat can be reported though the link above. 另外, you may choose to refer the student to various resources on campus depending on their needs.

紧急情况: Any situation which you feel is imminent in nature and the 安全 of the student or 其他人 is involved should be reported immediately via phone to University Police (660.562.1254). These include thoughts of harm to self or 其他人. If you are unsure, contact University Police as they are on call 24/7.
