  • Incident reporting

    We want to inform and remind you of a principle that serves as an essential element of our community.

    Every member of the campus community has a unique perspective on their place in the world and must be allowed the space and freedom to express that perspective safely and respectfully. Our community thrives when we treat and respond to one another’s ideas with civility.

    Our community condemns racism, hatred or bigotry. This includes Islamophobia, antisemitism and threats or insults directed at individuals or groups based on race, color, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, ability status, political affiliation or other traits.

    Anyone who has experienced or witnessed an act of hate, bias or discrimination should submit a bias incident report at the link below. The University takes all incident reports seriously and investigates them thoroughly. The University Counseling Center (UCC), the Dean of Students Office, the CARE Team and the University Ombudsman, at ombudsman@binghamton.edu, can also offer support. Anyone who needs immediate assistance should contact University Police at (607) 777-2222.
