Conflict Resolution
Facilitated, or managed, conflict can be a mechanism for individual and collective learning and change. The Student Conduct Office believes that provided the resources and means are available, students are the most capable of resolving their own disputes. Services in Alternative Conflict Resolution (ACR) provide educational opportunities for students to improve their conflict resolution skills. Conflict can be a challenge for anyone, so we offer many services to aid students and registered student organization leaders in addressing these issues.
