Trauma and Students with Ongoing Needs:
  • When a student has experienced trauma, how might that be evident in their academic performance or relationships with instructors or peers?
  • Are certain students more susceptible to negative academic outcomes related to trauma?
  • I know I can't be told the specifics of a response by UNO's Care Team, but what happens when I fill out a report on one of my students?

When a student has experienced trauma, how might that be evident in their academic performance or relationships with instructors or peers? Or how can I recognize trauma in students?

The UNO Care Team reviews all reports. For privacy reasons, the UNO Care Team won’t be able to report on the specific steps that were taken once a report has been submitted. However, be assured they do evaluate the information you’ve provided and make recommendations on any further action. If you complete a report on an issue that’s related or has happened to you, such as a student threat, the UNO Care Team will contact you directly.

Our Care Team is a group of skilled colleagues who are experts in a variety of areas. Know that once you report a student who is in distress, you’ve placed that student into the care of people who care.

Reporting is the most critical step. Find out more at https://www.unomaha.edu/faculty-support/cfe-faculty-resources/trauma-informed/care-teams.php
