Caltech Hotline Article

The Caltech Hotline is a confidential way for students, postdocs, faculty, and staff to report concerns that could harm Caltech's reputation and integrity. Integrity, accountability, and ethical conduct are core to everything we do as Caltech advances new science and technology.

If you see something, say something.

The Hotline is a way to report violations of Institute policy, laws, or regulations, unethical behavior, conflicts of interest, fraud, or other improper conduct. The Whistleblower Policy prohibits retaliation against anyone who makes a good-faith report.

Reports are handled with discretion, and concerns can be submitted anonymously. Protecting reporters' privacy helps foster a culture where the Caltech community feels empowered to speak up.

Hotline Resources

To raise awareness of available resources, ASIC has refreshed the Caltech Hotline Poster, Hotline Infographic, and Compliance Brochure. Posters are displayed next to Labor Law Posters across campus, with Code of Conduct information and a scannable QR code for quick access.
