Seattle U has moved to remote instruction through the Spring Quarter. More details and FAQs on the COVID-19 website.
The Office of Student Conduct & Integrity Formation is open, and staff are working remotely in order to promote physical distancing.
Our commitment to serving our students and the university community continues during these unprecedented times. See below for updates from our office: we will update the information on this page if circumstances change.
If you have additional questions, please feel free to reach out to our staff directly for support at integrity@seattleu.edu. You can find our staff information for Student Conduct & Integrity Formation, as well as the Office of the Dean of Students, by clicking here.
I want to report an incident or make a complaint. What should I do?
As always, we ask that you submit an incident report or complaint through our online reporting form. You may use this form to report an incident or alleged violation of the Code of Student Conduct (e.g., substance use, sexual harassment, sexual misconduct, bias-related harassment). Our first concern is the safety and well-being of our students.
Note that these form submissions are not monitored outside of business hours. If you are reporting an immediate danger to health and safety of yourself and/or others, call 911 or Seattle University Public Safety at 206-296-5911.
My case is still open and unresolved. What will happen?
If your hearing and/or meeting has not yet occurred, please open the letter sent to your @seattleu.edu email address for details and/or contact your assigned Conduct Administrator. You can also email integrity@seattleu.edu.
We are proceeding with our usual programs and services through the Zoom platform while still upholding privacy and confidentiality. We are able to utilize screen sharing, breakout rooms, and other features to continue operations virtually. We appreciate your understanding as we adjust our processes.
If you have concerns about a virtual hearing, please contact integrity@seattleu.edu or your assigned Conduct Administrator directly.
I have sanctions due soon. What should I do?
We understand that current circumstances may be affecting students' ability to complete sanctions on time. Your Conduct Administrator can work with you to develop a plan to complete your sanctions.
Previously assigned in-person sanctions (e.g., substance use classes) are now available online. If you have a question about how to register or access the online offering, or have concerns about completion, please contact integrity@seattleu.edu or your assigned Conduct Administrator.
All financial sanctions that were instructed to be paid in Student Center 140 between February 1, 2020 and April 30, 2020 have a new deadline of May 15, 2020. Students, instead, can donate the assigned sanctions to the Uncommon Care at Uncommon Times fund and submit a screenshot of payment confirmation to integrity@seattleu.edu. If you have concerns about payment given current circumstances, contact integrity@seattleu.edu for accommodations and/or alternatives.
No fines or administrative holds for incomplete financial sanctions will be imposed at this time. Other sanctions (classes, meetings, online modules, papers, etc.) will be expected for on-time completion. If they are not completed, our process – which may include fines and administrative holds for incomplete sanctions – will continue as usual.
I have a question about an administrative hold on my student account. What should I do?
If your hold is related to completion of Think About It, please email thinkaboutit@seattleu.edu.
Otherwise, please check your email history with our office (from a staff member and/or notifications@maxient.com). In addition, you can email integrity@seattleu.edu for questions abut holds.
What about records requests?
Our office can process most records requests virtually. Please see our webpage on Student Conduct Records for information.
Government agencies interested in having conduct/disciplinary checks completed for security clearance should email integrity@seattleu.edu.
If you are another outside agency requesting records for employment and/or admission to an institution, contact integrity@seattleu.edu.
I'm in a different time zone. How should I communicate with you?
Email us at integrity@seattleu.edu to schedule. We can be available to talk at a time that's convenient for everyone involved. This includes rescheduling any appointments/meetings with our office.
I called the main telephone number (206-296-6060) and no one answered. What should I do?
The best way to contact our office is over email, either integrity@seattleu.edu or emailing your Conduct Administrator directly. We are monitoring voicemail messages regularly. If leaving a voicemail message, please include 1) your full name (and Seattle U ID Number if applicable), 2) your relationship with the university, 3) a callback number, and 4) the reason for your call.
