If a student is experiencing problems related to the assigned UM-SSW field faculty member, they should first discuss the issues with that person where and when possible. If this does not resolve the problem, the director of field education or assistant director of field education should be consulted, and attempts will be made to mediate and resolve the problem. If this does not resolve the problem, the student may consult with the associate dean for educational programs.

If there is a dispute over a grade in field education, the normal university procedures will be followed.
