We define a threat as鈥�
A threat is an expression of intent to do harm or act out violently against someone or something (including self). A threat can be spoken, written or symbolic. Not all threats, nor those who threaten, are equal in their potential for harm, but all threats that are brought to the attention of the university will be taken seriously, evaluated and documented.
Cultivating a Boulder Culture of Reporting
兔子先生传媒文化作品 has several robust processes for individuals to share concerns and request support, including several reporting options through CUPD, the Don't Ignore It website and anonymously through When concerns are reported, they are evaluated and addressed through tailored processes depending on the involved populations.听
Informational reports are crucial, as they allow us to monitor and identify patterns in behaviors before any intervention is necessary. By submitting a report, even if you prefer no immediate action, you help us aggregate and connect these reports with others from different campus sources. This approach reduces communication gaps and enhances our understanding of specific behaviors and individuals involved.听
As we strive to cultivate a Boulder Culture of Reporting, we encourage everyone to report any observed behaviors鈥攚hether threatening or suspicious. Your reports are vital for our team to assess and address concerns effectively. Let鈥檚 work together to keep our campus safe and informed.
When people exhibit concerning behaviors, they typically need help or support. Concerning behaviors range from escalating anger to changes in appearance to sadness, depression or isolation. If they communicate a plan to cause harm to people or places, or they are in crisis, it is important to share or relay these concerns to people who can help. This assistance can include referrals to confidential counseling services, campus support resources, medical and health services, and protective or no contact orders through law enforcement.
