This is something I've often wondered about. I'm an advisor with no other affiliation to the university, and while they have thorough and helpful resources for students regarding title IX/sexual misconduct, they have no readily available information on their mandatory reporting policies. As far as I'm aware, I have no mandatory obligations, but would love to know for certain.

I'm an advisor that works on campus but also in a confidential role so the Title IX stuff for me is so messed up. The one thing out university has just done is create a program where students (who are not mandatory reporters) in each organization are trained on policy and procedure to help the students have someone in their organization that they can go to if they are not sure about something.

I'm honestly not sure how I feel about it, especially outside direct observation.

We just did our fall advisor meeting for the school I'm an advisor at and we had a presentation by the director of title IX on campus. Found out the same information as amIblue? posted, except that only the chapter advisor is a "campus security authority". All other advisor for the chapter are not mandated reporters. I thought it was interesting the school made the distinction.

Maybe the Chapter Advisor is because she has contact with university greek life staff?

All Greek advisors are considered volunteers that have to register through the university. At the meeting a lot of advisors didn't agree with this new change, many said they would be contacting their national/international offices to get input on the policy change.
