A Green Dot is a behavior, choice or action that promotes safety for everyone. It communicates intolerance for harmful situations on our campus and that everyone can play a part in keeping our community safe. Green Dots are simple actions you can take in your everyday life. The heart of the Green Dot Bystander Intervention program are the 3 D's:
Direct: Step in and address the situation yourself or check in on the person experiencing the harm.
Distract: Create a diversion to interrupt the situation by asking someone for directions or asking if they dropped a dollar.
Delegate: Recruit others to help with the situation like another student, a friend, a faculty member or coworker.
