17. Section 4.3: REDHAWKS CARE POLICY At Seattle University, the health, safety, and welfare of our students and community are paramount concerns. All Seattle University students are expected to inform appropriate officials in the event of any health or safety risk or emergency – specifically those involving alcohol or drug abuse even if violations of the Redhawk Commitment may have occurred in connection with such a risk or emergency. Because the University understands that fear of possible disciplinary action may deter requests for emergency assistance, the University has adopted the following Redhawks Care Policy to alleviate such concerns and promote responsible action on the part of students. In a situation involving imminent threat or danger to the health or safety of any individual(s), students are expected to: • Contact Public Safety by calling 5-911 and/or 911 to report the incident on-campus and 911 off-campus, • Remain with the individual(s) needing emergency treatment and cooperate with emergency officials, and • Meet with appropriate University officials after the incident and cooperate with Integrity Formation procedures following the incident. The Office of Integrity Formation will consider the positive impact of taking responsible action in an emergency situation when determining the appropriate response for alleged policy violations by the reporting student in the risk or emergency situation. The policy does not preclude or prevent action by police or other legal authorities when appropriate. A student's failure to take responsible action in a risk or emergency situation, however, may void all protections under this provision, may constitute an aggravating factor for purposes of sanctioning.
