For various reasons, students may find it necessary to voice a concern related to a class. In those cases, issues should be addressed as follows:
The Title IX Educational Act of 1972 prohibits violence, harassment, and discrimination based on sex and gender. This definition of gender-based violence includes sexual assault; rape; dating/domestic violence; stalking; sexual harassment; harassment based on sexual orientation, gender identity, or expression; stalking; cyber-stalking; etc. If you or someone you know experiences such a crime, you have options for support.
Note that counselors and pastors are not mandatory reporters; they can keep confidences. All other employees are mandatory reporters under state law.
Because we are created in the image of God, we have immeasurable value.

At Union, we are committed to ensuring a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment for all students. We have assembled a team of Solution Seekers to assist you. The uSeek form is a confidential resource that allows students to seek assistance in various areas, including: Title IX concerns, harassment, Campus Safety, disability access and information, diversity and inclusion, mental health, and pastoral care.

To foster academic integrity by learning and applying ethical practices in research and writing, some courses use Turnitin software to generate a similarity report along with grammatical and mechanical guidance for students. This software compares your writing to the writing of other students in the Turnitin repository, internet sources, and academic databases. It also stores your submissions for future use. The goal of employing Turnitin is to help students develop a better grasp of their paraphrasing, summarizing, and citing skills.
Life coaching is a collaboration between the coach and the student. It is an individualized process to help students identify their scholastic or personal goals and support students toward achieving these goals by providing structure, support, feedback, and encouragement.
All incoming first-year students are assigned a Certified Life Coach who becomes their person for selecting courses, exploring major options, and adjusting to college life through the first academic year.
