Reporting Issues or Concerns

Are you a student, faculty, or staff who has a concern or would like to report an issue? Please complete and submit the ORE Maxient Form.


What is it?
 Maxient is a software program utilized by U.S. higher education institutions to track and record trainee behaviors (i.e. student discipline, academic integrity, care and concern records, Title IX matters, or just an “FYI”).

Why is it useful? Maxient has centralized reporting and record keeping that will help us connect the dots and prevent students from falling through the cracks by helping us identify students in distress and coordinate the efforts of various departments to provide follow-up.

How will ORE Use Maxient? We have created an ORE Maxient Form for students, faculty, and staff to share any concern or report any type of issue or concern about oneself or others. Once submitted, the form will be routed to the corresponding Program Director and Program Administrator for follow up. If an individual prefers NOT to notify the program, they may select "ORE" from the Program list and the form will instead be routed to the ORE Assistant Dean for Student Affairs.

Steve Nordeen Travel Awards

Thanks to a generous donation by Dr. Steve Nordeen, PhD, the first director of the Cancer Biology Graduate Program and Professor Emeritus of Pathology, we are able to provide 5-6 travel awards each year for our students to travel to a cancer-related conference and present their research.

Travel Awards


Student travel awards are available from the Graduate School. Funds are provided from an endowment entitled the “C. Werner and Kitty Hirs Graduate Student Enrichment Fund” made to the University of Colorado Foundation for the use by the Graduate School at the Anschutz Medical Campus. Awards are up to $500 and are to be used to help defray the expenses incurred by a PhD student who attends a nationally recognized meeting and presents their work.
