Reporting Bias Incidents

Marquette Law School strives to create an environment that is respectful and inclusive for all members of our community. If you witness or experience any discriminatory act, we encourage you to report the incident. There are several reporting options. Students may schedule an appointment with Dean Lindsey here on Fridays between 1:00 and 2:00 p.m. Dean Lindsey is also available to meet with students other times during the week by appointment.

In addition, other members of the administration, such as Dean Grossman and Dean Fodor, are available to meet with students by appointment. Finally, students may use Marquette University’s Bias Incident Reporting Form to report bias incidents anonymously. Reporting bias incidents allows the Law School to track, investigate, and respond accordingly.
