Dear students and colleagues:

I am pleased to announce that the University Ombudspersons who will serve our campus during the upcoming year are Professors Laura Hahn and Dale Oliver.

The University Ombudspersons provide confidential, informal mediation and conflict resolution services, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to students, faculty, and staff, with a primary focus on student concerns. The Ombudspersons also serve as a resource to promote a positive campus climate and environment by facilitating problem resolution through listening, providing information, making referrals to other campus resources, and identifying options and alternatives.

For more information about the University Ombudspersons, including their contact information and how they may be of assistance, please visit: http://www.humboldt.edu/ombuds/.

Thank you, Laura and Dale, for your service on our behalf.

With best wishes,


Lisa A. Rossbacher, Ph.D.
President
