My role as Rackham Resolution Officer is to help graduate students and postdocs resolve concerns, problems, or conflicts with regards to University policies, procedures, and decisions. The services of the Resolution Officer are available to all Rackham graduate students and postdocs. The Resolution Officer provides a confidential and neutral place to express concerns. Individuals work with me to identify steps to achieve a timely and fair resolution to a problem. I’m interested in both issue resolution and prevention in resolving both academic and non-academic concerns.
