Bias Reporting Tool

Content Review Portal
The Office of Inclusion has developed a review process to assist in reducing content that contains unconscious bias. Utilizing this portal is strongly encouraged, but not required. The portal was created intentionally for faculty and staff of the Heritage College,
Only the Office of Inclusion will review materials submitted. Any feedback points are suggestions only.
We know that by taking the time to submit content and have it reviewed by the Office of Inclusion that you value and have prioritized diversity and inclusion.
