Clemson University Ombuds

What Is an Ombuds?

An Ombuds is a confidential, independent, neutral, informal, and safe resource where the Clemson community can go to process concerns, get information, and develop options for how to move forward in a difficult situation.  The University Ombuds can provide education, conflict coaching, mediation, facilitation, and referrals to other resources across Clemson University.
