Bias Assessment and Response Team Mission
The Bias Assessment and Response Team (BART) is a collaborative work group that strives to create a respectful, hate-free campus environment by 1) supporting those who experience harm and, 2) by seeking remedies to incidents of bias. When University policies are alleged to be violated, remedies include consultation about official reporting options. Through timely and thoughtful action, we work toward building an inclusive campus that welcomes the perspectives, voices, and gifts of all community members.
