Dear Colleagues,

The behavioral intervention team (BIT) at UNH provides assistance to the UNH community when a student's behavior suggests harm to self or others. Based upon a timely review of reported behavior, BIT makes referrals to appropriate resources and recommends appropriate actions to me.

Behaviors that the BIT addresses include:

• Intent and/or plans听 to perform听 a violent 听act,
• Unprovoked anger or hostility,
• Apparent disorientation or breaks from reality,
• Deterioration听 in quality听 of work听 and/or appearance, and
• Expression of despair, hopelessness.

In cases of imminent threat, contact UNH Police (911) immediately. In all other cases, if you see any student听 behavior听 that causes concern,听 please听 contact听 BIT at 603-862-2053.

BIT members are Ruth Abelmann, acting director, Residential Life; Paul Dean, UNH Chief of Police; Joan Glutting, interim director, Counseling Center; Kathleen Grace-Bishop, director of education & promotion, Health Services/BIT chairperson, Health Services; Judy Stevens, community health nurse, Health Services; Nate Talbot, director of academic advising, University Advising and Career Center; and Victoria Wilson, assistant director, Housing.
