Addressing Student Concerns

In an emergency, call Bradley University Police from campus extensions or your cell phone: 911 or (309) 677-2000.

An emergency is when a student experiences an immediate medical situation, poses imminent danger to self or others, demonstrates behavior that makes you feel unsafe, or is a victim of a crime. A Bradley University police officer will be dispatched to the scene.

SEE SOMETHING.

Bradley University faculty and staff are in a unique position to demonstrate compassion for Bradley students in distress. Since you have frequent and prolonged contact with them, you may be the first person to SEE SOMETHING such as signs of loneliness, isolation, and even hopelessness in students facing academic and life challenges. These feelings can easily disrupt academic performance and may lead to difficulties coping and other serious consequences.

SAY SOMETHING.

If a student interaction is making you feel worried, alarmed, or threatened trust your instincts and SAY SOMETHING. Students exhibiting troubling behaviors in your presence may be having difficulties in various settings including the classroom, or with roommates, family, and/or social settings.

DO SOMETHING.

Your expression of concern may be a critical factor in saving a student’s academic career or even their life. The purpose of this folder is to help you DO SOMETHING by referring students to the appropriate campus resources.
