Resources for Reporting

Penn State and the Eberly College of Science provide resources for addressing issues and concerns.

Eberly College of Science Guide Program

We provide safe and informal opportunities for members of our college to discuss any issues that arise, work to facilitate communication, and help connect people to resources for further assistance.

Gender Equity Center

Penn State’s Gender Equity Center supports students who have been impacted by sexual violence, relationship violence, stalking, harassment, and other campus climate issues. Staff provide education, advocacy, referrals, and crisis intervention/support counseling.

Reporting at Penn State

As a member of the Penn State community, you are encouraged to report potential issues and concerns and/or raise questions if you learn about something that might not be consistent with the Penn State Values.

In an emergency situation, Penn State Police can be reached at 814-863-1111 (nonemergency) and 911 for emergencies at University Park.

For a nonemergency concern, Penn State’s Behavioral Threat Management Team is also a resource. The team is committed to the safety and well-being of the University community.

All faculty and staff should sign up for PSUAlert text messages to stay well informed of the latest emergency information from the University.

The Penn State Crisis Line (877-229-6400) and the Crisis Text Line (text “LIONS” to 741741) are open 24/7 to Penn State faculty and staff dealing with both crisis and noncrisis situations—including those who have a concern about someone else.
