Mediation for campus disputes offers the benefits of promoting individuals' capacities and responsibilities for making decisions about their lives, fostering mutual respect and cooperation among students and staff, and applying the principle of fairness rather than power in resolving disputes. After identifying the goals of a campus mediation program, the manual discusses issues in planning such a program. These include program location, the selection of a mediation model and mediators, mediator training, the evaluation of mediators, case selection, and case referral. The discussion of aspects of program implementation encompasses the obtaining of administrative and financial support; the promotion of dispute referral to mediation; the size of the startup budget; and the handling of staffing, case intake, and scheduling. Issues affecting long-term operation include program expansion and the legal issues raised by mediation. Forms for intake and trainee evaluations and a list of literary and organizational resources.
