Call 877-SPEAKTU or Make a Report

SpeakTU allows any Towson University employee or others to report faculty, staff, or student employee ethics and compliance violations by calling (877-773-2588) or filing an online report.

This phone and web-based reporting service operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week and is run by an independent third party provider, EthicsPoint.

SpeakTU facilitates reporting of possible illegal, unethical, or improper conduct when the normal channels of communication have proven ineffective, or impractical under the circumstances. These violations may include, but are not limited to: fraud, employee misconduct, environmental and safety matters, and theft/embezzlement.

SpeakTU is designed to protect your confidentiality, and your anonymity, if requested. Regardless of how a report is made, Towson University prohibits retaliation against anyone who, in good faith, reports a possible violation or who participates in an investigation, even if sufficient evidence is not found to substantiate the concern. Towson University will take appropriate action against any individual determined to be engaging in retaliatory conduct.

See the SPEAK TU FAQs for more information.
