BIT Membership
The purpose of our BIT is to be a resource to members of the university community who have a concern about a student’s behavior and need the opportunity to consult with professionals who deal with behavioral issues on a more frequent basis.
We strive to provide an organized and coordinated method of assessment of the severity of an incident or situation affecting an individual and/or the University community. We determine the need for intervention, identification and activation of appropriate resources and responses, ongoing monitoring, and evaluation of responses and outcomes.
Meeting attendance
Out of concern for the confidentiality of information disclosed at meetings, compliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), and ethical considerations, attendance at meetings is limited to those who are members of the team or are invited to attend.
