Dear OU Community,
At OU, our commitment to becoming a place of belonging for all strikes at the heart of everything we stand for as a community. Upholding this core value includes our promise to foster an environment of integrity, respect, and the highest ethical standards.
Each member of the OU community shares the responsibility of ensuring these values are firmly upheld and concerns are promptly addressed. To that end, the University has partnered with EthicsPoint, an independent third party, to provide a simple and anonymous way for employees and students to report concerns or possible misconduct.
The OU Report It! hotline enables reporting on the following types of issues:
Human Resources
Employee misconduct involving faculty, staff, or student employees
Student Affairs
Student related issues, including misconduct, campus living, student activities, and safety
Institutional Equity
Discrimination, harassment, or institutional equity issues involving faculty, staff, or students
Academics
Academic-related matters, including academic misconduct and faculty concerns
Accounting and Financial
Accounting or financial issues, including fraud, waste, or abuse
Athletics
All issues dealing with the University's athletics department or program
Safety
Unsafe conditions, environmental issues, or other safety issues, including safety of minors
Regulatory/Policy Compliance
Regulatory and policy compliance matters, including conflicts of interest, HIPAA, and intellectual property
Research

The University takes these matters extremely seriously and is committed to holding individuals, regardless of rank, accountable for their actions when they are found to violate University policy. Let’s all do our part to make OU a safe and inviting community.
Live On, University,
Joseph Harroz, Jr.
President
