Student Response Team
The Student Response Team’s purpose is to serve as a coordinating entity in responding to critical incidents and the aftermath of critical incidents that affect students; to share information about critical incidents affecting students; and to assist other University of Northern Colorado entities in responding to critical incidents that involve and/or affect students.
The Student Response Team has defined the following as critical incidents that we may respond to whether it occurs on or off campus:
- Death of a student
- Student Group Car Accident or other Accident
- Communicable Disease/Health Emergencies
- National Emergencies
- Traumatic Incidents
- Risk Assessment for Violence and Other Critical Incidents
- Serious or Life threatening injury or illness
- Mental Health Crisis
If you are concerned about the health, well being, and safety of a student, please fill out a Student Health and Safety Referral Form:
Examples of why you may fill out the form are:
- pattern of bizarre behaviors or actions
- disruption to the classroom or living community
- harmful to themselves or others
- suicidal threats gestures or attempts (Contact UNCPD or counseling center immediately)
- alcohol problems
- eating concerns
- self-injurious behavior (e.g., cutting self)
- hospitalization for drug or alcohol use
- sudden rapid weight loss
- poor health due to restrictive eating
The reports will be reviewed by the Student Response Team in order to determine the best way to help this student.
