Learning Environment Committee Information

Learning Environment Committee (LEC) consists of 6 faculty members (including one committee chair) appointed by the Executive Dean. They assist in monitoring de-identified reports of mistreatment and makes recommendations to address concerns identified both in individual reports and concerns consistently noted in settings in the learning environment.

The LEC will assist in developing educational materials related to student mistreatment prevention. The LEC may invite other parties to their meetings to help identify strategies to foster a positive learning environment or address areas of mistreatment in particular settings.

Their Role is to:

• Review redacted reports of mistreatment incidents as shared by the SADAA.
• Review mistreatment dashboard/report on a quarterly basis with the SADAA and ODAS Director to determine if patterns of behavior(s) in a particular setting need to be addressed.
• Provide recommendations to the SADAA based on incidents discussed and data reviewed.
• collaborate with the Offices of Faculty Affairs and Leadership Development, Office of Student Affairs, the Ombuds and other stakeholders as appropriate to develop educational materials and programs to foster a positive learning environment.
