University Ombudsperson
The University ombudsperson serves as a prompt, impartial,
and confidential resource designated by the president of CCSU to assist members
of the campus community to resolve a problem or complaint quickly and properly.
The ombudsperson also helps the University to develop, implement, and maintain
policies and procedures that equitably address the rights and responsibilities
of everyone on campus. The University ombudsperson can be a last resort,
offering help when regular channels have failed, as well as an information
resource, offering guidance for those who don't know where to begin. The ombudsperson
is not intended to replace existing University governance or appeal procedures
but rather to improve communication regarding University operations and to
enable members of the University community to protect their rights and have
their concerns addressed in an efficient and effective manner. The office of
the University ombudsperson is located in Davidson Hall, Room 214
(860-832-2216).
