There is no such thing as an "unofficial" complaint unless the individual only shares the information with one of the mental health counselors or health service employees at the College who are bound by the ethics of confidentiality to not release information without permission except in circumstances where they believe that the safety and welfare of the individual or others may be at risk or as otherwise required by law.
