LSU Cares
Online reporting system.
LSU Cares is a university initiative dedicated to the well-being of students and promotion of a community that cares about each of its members.
LSU offers an online reporting system to help students, faculty, staff, families, and friends submit reports about:
- potential violations of the LSU Code of Student Conduct;
- concerns regarding sexual misconduct and hazing;
- concerns surrounding acts of bias or discrimination;
- students with pregnancy and/or parenting needs;
- complaints or grievances; and
- concerns about students in crisis or distress.
When a report is received, staff will review the details using a CARE approach (Communicate, Assess, Refer, Educate) and then determine a response that includes appropriate campus resources. For more information, download the LSU Cares brochure.
It might also be helpful to review Helping Students of Concern for additional information.
If there is a possibility that a student may harm himself/herself or others, dial 911 immediately. In the event of an emergency, do not use these forms.
Call LSU Police immediately by dialing 911 or 225-578-3231.
If you have questions, contact the Office of the Dean of Students/Student Advocacy & Accountability at 225-578-4307 or send an email to dossaa@lsu.edu.
