Dear RSU Community,
Rogers State University is committed to the highest standards of ethics, honesty, and integrity and to compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and believes that employees and students should be able to raise questions or voice concerns about workplace and University issues.
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 Hillcats 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
Research compliance and integrity matters
Reports submitted to the Hotline will be handled as promptly and discreetly as possible, with facts made available only to those who need to know to investigate and resolve the matter. No retaliatory action will be taken against anyone for reporting or inquiring in good faith.
Your Obligations as a Reporter: The University relies on you to report good faith concerns about policy violations or unethical behavior. It is expected that you will be truthful and cooperative during the University's investigation of allegations. Any attempts to intimidate or retaliate against individuals for filing, responding to, or participating in a hotline report are strictly prohibited. False complaints can severely undermine the effectiveness of the University's reporting systems and discourage individuals from expressing genuine concerns. Anyone who deliberately submits false reports or provides misleading information during investigations is in violation of university policies. The University reserves the right to take action under its policies in cases of retaliation or false reporting by employees or students, including the possibility of legal action under applicable law.
