Followup Re: Fizz Survey
We are writing to share the results from the Fizz Survey that we sent to you in an email communication on January 8, 2025. As a reminder, the survey had three parts: (1) learning across difference; (2) on campus experience; and (3) a primary focus of questions on the Fizz virtual environment based on multiple reports that DU students were being targeted on that platform. We shared in the January 8th communication, and it is essential to reiterate that there is no tolerance at the University for bullying, discrimination and/or harassment whether occurring in person or through written or electronic means. Students found responsible for these behaviors could be subject to outcomes that may include suspension or expulsion. LEARN MORE
