Amnesty for Active Assistance

Student health and safety are of primary concern at the University of Delaware. As such, in cases of behavior that presents serious and immediate harm or threat of harm to a individual or the larger University community, individuals are encouraged to seek assistance for themselves or others.

If active assistance is sought due to a serious and immediate risk of harm, Community Standards & Conflict Resolution will not pursue conduct charges against a student or student organization for violations of the Code of Conduct resulting from the behavior.
