Issues or behavior concerning the wellbeing of a student that are perceived to be harmful, worrisome, or threatening (to the individual student or to others) are forwarded to the C.A.R.E. Team, who will assess, consult, and respond to the concern or incident.
Issues or behavior concerning poor or struggling academic performance (e.g., excessive class absences, excessive tardiness, failing or poor grades, etc.), not academic misconduct, are forwarded to the Academic Intervention Team (AIT).
Experiencing an incident of sexual assault, discrimination, or violation is shocking, confusing, and disorienting. Afterwards, you may not know what to do or where to go.
The goal of LSU's Office of Civil Rights & Title IX is to ensure you receive appropriate support, receive due process, and are treated respectfully and fairly.

We want victims of hazing, or anyone who knows or suspects someone who’s a victim of hazing, to feel empowered to report incidents within the university community. You will never suffer university consequences for filing a report about hazing or suspected hazing. LSU prohibits hazing, in any form, of any member of the university community.
Issues or concerns with a student, individual, or department at LSU or a group of students that may constitute an act(s) of bias or discrimination should be reported here.
