The University of North Dakota just hired its first ombuds in August. The new office and program has a primary goal of helping to create a better, more positive work and learning environment for all of UND's faculty, staff, and students. The UND Ombuds is a neutral resource for members of the entire University community and provides timely and informal assistance to members of the UND community by listening to concerns with the aim of proposing various options for positive resolution, providing information, and making referrals. The position reports to the president. At this point in time, there is no policy governing the position or office.
