Complaint and Feedback Procedures
Do you have concerns?
The Lee Honors College at Western Michigan University encourages direct dialogue about areas of concern or disagreement and welcomes both positive and constructive feedback in our continuous efforts at improvement. Below are specific instructions on how you can communicate suggestions and concerns as well as resolve complaints.
Any interested party may schedule a meeting with any member of our staff to discuss concerns by calling the reception desk during regular business hours: (269) 387-3230. You may also send an email or deliver a written statement. In general, complaints in various areas are handled by the following staff members as an initial point of contact:
Dean Irma Lopez handles issues of safety, inequity and other matters not specified below.
Matters related to a specific course should be referred to the instructor teaching the course (see your syllabus for office hours and email).
Assistant Dean and Director of Advising Anthony Helms can help with matters related to advising and your honors college requirements.
Business Manager Associate Jennifer Clements should be contacted for matters relating to scholarship disbursements, reimbursements, and budget.
Executive Assistant Jennifer Townsend can assist you with matters related to the honors college facilities.
Further action
If you are not satisfied by the response from a staff member, please take your concerns to Dean Lopez. If, after contacting the dean, you are still dissatisfied, we recommend that you contact the Office of the Ombudsman, which will further guide the complaint process.
