Steps to Reporting a Concern:

If you have a concern with a class or instructor, FIRST go to the specific instructor and see if the matter can be resolved. If not, you must follow protocol and move up the administrative hierarchy. Specifically, the proper sequence of steps is to first see the course instructor. If no resolution occurs, the next step would be to meet with the Department Chair. If you are still not satisfied you move on to the Associate Dean and then the Dean. If you do not follow this sequence properly, you will be asked to speak with the correct individual which may jeopardize the opportunity to resolve the issue. Please note that following this sequence does not guarantee your preferred outcome.
