Early Alert Referral Service
** If this is a true emergency where the lives of the student or other students are in danger, contact 911 or Campus Security at 507-389-2111 immediately. **
The purpose of the Early Alert Referral is to give faculty, staff, students and/or parents the opportunity to refer a student who has an academic concern such as excessive absences, a failing letter grade, or concerning behavior. The referral will go to the Office of New Student and Family Programs who will assess the situation, offer support and provide referrals to the appropriate resources on campus.
NOTE: In accordance with the Family and Privacy Act (FERPA), the structure is designed to allow referrals to be viewed only by those individuals who have a need to know. The information shared will not become a part of a student's permanent record. In addition, state and federal privacy laws prohibit the unauthorized disclosure of personally identifiable health information.
