What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Current law requires certain persons who have reasonable cause to suspect that a child seen in the course of professional duties has been abused or neglected or who has a reasonable belief that such a child has been threatened with abuse or neglect and that abuse or neglect will occur to report that suspected or threatened abuse or neglect to the county department of human services or social services or to the sheriff or city, village, or town police department. Executive Order 54 (2011) requires similar reporting by a professor, administrator, coach, or other employee of the University of Wisconsin System.

This bill makes professors, administrators, coaches, and other employees of any public, private, or tribal postsecondary educational institution mandatory child abuse and neglect reporters.
