Phone Calls and Emails

The Faculty Ombud is committed to maintaining your privacy. We recommend that emails and phone calls are reserved for arranging meetings where your concerns can be addressed. If a face-to-face meeting is not possible, the ombud is happy to provide a link for an online meeting.

Callers may wish to dial *67 before dialing our number in order to block caller ID.

Office Visits

The Office of the Faculty Ombud is located on the first floor of McCain Library and can be accessed through the main entrances on the second floor. By arrangement, visitors seeking additional privacy may also enter through the west entrance on the first floor.
