Behavioral Intervention Team (BIT)

WHAT IS BIT?

The Behavioral Intervention Team (BIT) is a multi-disciplinary group whose purpose is to meet regularly to support students and the campus community via an established protocol. The team tracks red flags and collects data from a variety of sources at a single site so a pattern of behavior becomes apparent.

WHAT ARE THE GOALS OF BIT?

1. Provide a structured, positive method to address student behaviors, which negatively impact either the student or the college community
2. Manage each case individually, while addressing mental and physical health, academic concerns, and/or safety concerns
3. Initiate appropriate intervention without necessarily resorting to punitive measures
4. Eliminate fragmented interventions
