Behavioral Intervention Team

With students facing high levels of stress in their lives, faculty and staff may encounter students whose behaviors are concerning, disruptive, or threatening towards themselves or others. To respond to the safety needs of the campus, Reinhardt University has established the Behavioral Intervention Team (BIT) under the leadership of the Dean of Students. BIT serves as the centralized body for discussion and coordinated action regarding disruptive, problematic, dangerous, threatening or concerning behavior that might impact the safety or well-being of a student and/or the campus community. BIT responds to non-emergency concerns and uses a proactive approach to discuss potential problems, intervene early, and develop appropriate courses of action for referred students. The goal is to support students who may be in distress or whose behavior is of concern to others before it rises to a crisis level.
