Meet the College Ombudsperson.

Ombuds Office

The Ombuds Office is an independent office at Confederation College financed equally by the College and the Student Union of Confederation College Inc (SUCCI).

Hi! I am Kim Morgan, the Ombudsperson at Confederation College! The Ombuds Office is an independent office at Confederation College financed equally by the College and the Student Union of Confederation College Inc (SUCCI). The Ombuds Office was created not because the College has or expects to have a large number of problems, concerns or complaints from students, but rather as a means to be proactive.

Mission Statement

The Ombuds Office contributes to student success by ensuring that students receive fair and equitable treatment within the College. The Ombudsperson, acting as an independent and impartial party, can help the College uphold its ideals with respect to values, attitudes and practices.
