  Confidential & Non-confidential Reporters

  NON-CONFIDENTIAL REPORTERS include all faculty and staff who are not listed as confidential reporters.  Non-confidential reporters are required to report any and all Title IX related incidents to the Title IX Office.  Resident Assistants are also non-confidential reporters and must report any and all Title IX related incidents to the Title IX Office.
  

  CONFIDENTIAL REPORTERS are trained professionals who can provide confidential support.  These individuals are not required by the University to report any information to the Title IX Coordinator without your permission, though they may have certain reporting requirements pursuant to their own professional licensure requirements or code of ethics.  You may also speak to one of the confidential resources on campus:

  • Counseling Center, Phillip Brantley and Noreal Armstrong 828-689-1196; Judith Harris 828-1410; or counseling@mhu.edu
  • Pastoral Counseling, Stephanie McLeskey 828-689-1299 or 828-689-1664

  • Anonymous Reporting Option URL

    Have you seen something that you would like to report, but are reluctant to come forward?  You can now submit a report for investigation anonymously.

    Although investigations are most effective with as much information as possible, an investigation can begin with something that you have observed or heard. 
    

    You are encouraged to report as much information about an alleged incident as possible.  Your information will be directly sent to the Title IX Coordinator for review.
