Friendly Reminder about Comments

Comments in Navigate are part of a student's academic record and will be seen by the student, their advisors, and student success teams.  As such, please share issues in a constructive way and avoid sharing details about protected information like specific health or ability diagnoses that a student may have shared with you.
  • DO SHARE: Health concerns kept student from attending class.
  • DO SHARE: Issues outside of the classroom are affecting academic performance.
  • DO NOT SHARE: Student shared they are being treated for depression and haven't attended class.
If the nature of a student's behavior is worrisome to you, it may warrant a more detailed report to the Dean of Students' Office.  This could include behaviors such as:
  • Concerning or Threatening Behavior
  • Sexual Misconduct
  • Hate and Bias Incidents
  • Crimes Against Children
  • General Incidents (any other concern)
If you have concerns about Academic Misconduct, please review the procedure and process here.


Faculty & staff members can find additional helpful materials in the EAB Navigate Training Course (self-enroll link) on the Canvas platform.
