Why Report?
Filing a report helps the university maintain a safe environment that supports the educational mission of the institution. I n addition, unreported bias incidents can perpetuate continued bias and erode the campus climate.
Ways to Report
Report suspected bias incidents to the OPHD office in the following ways:
- Online — OPHD Web Form (Available at any time)
- Email — Send a report to ophd@ucsd.edu (Available at any time)
- By Phone — (858) 534-8298
If you are experiencing an emergency, please contact 911 or UCSD Police at (858) 534-HELP.
You may also contact confidential CARE at the Sexual Assault Resource Center for immediate support, counseling and advocacy. CARE is available to UCSD students, staff, faculty, patients, and others who experience sexual violence in the context of a University program. Contacting CARE does not constitute a report to the University.
What to Include in Your Report
Keep any evidence, including photographs, written notes, documents and contact information for witnesses or other persons involved with the incident. File a report as soon as possible after the incident occurs to preserve the accuracy of information.
Note: A lack of "hard evidence" or significant time lapse since an incident occurred should not discourage you from filing a bias report but may limit what actions can be taken.
