Great Lakes Chennai publishes an anti-ragging committee and a policy against sexual harassment in its mandatory disclosure. These are reporting mechanisms, not guarantees about incident prevention or response times.
Students can raise a service request through the CAMU learning platform's grievance helpdesk by choosing a problem category. PGPM applicants can ask the admissions team for a prior appointment before visiting the campus.
