BEHAVIOR INTERVENTION TEAM (BIT)

Threat Assessment Overview and Procedure

What is a Behavioral Intervention Team?

The Behavioral Intervention Team is a group of campus professionals who assess and manage those referred for behaviors of concern such as potential violence, safety, or mental health issues. A core function of the BIT is threat assessment and early intervention, with the hope of prevention. The BIT offers a structured positive method for appropriately dealing with problem student behaviors impacting the West Liberty University (WLU) community.

 

Reasons for a Behavior Intervention Referral (Student Safety Concern)

  •  Threatening, dangerous, or alarming behaviors (including online activities) that disrupt WLU students, faculty, staff, or community safety. Examples include threats of a weapon on campus, threatening to harm others, vandalism, aggression, and intimidating gestures.
  • Self-injurious behavior or suicidal thoughts or attempts.
  •  Alcohol and drug abuse high risk behaviors.

Referral Procedure:

  • Submit Behavior Intervention form (side bar- resources)
  •  Immediate emergency call Campus Police (304) 336-8021 or 911
