Student Discipline Procedures
The purpose of the Student Discipline Procedures is to provide a fair, prompt, and equitable means to address violations of
the Standards of Conduct, and not for purposes of retaliation. This procedure affords students due process rights guaranteed
them by state and federal constitutional protections. It is not intended to substitute for criminal or civil proceedings that may
be initiated by other agencies.
When a student misconduct report or a Public Safety report is filed with the Student Life Office regarding a possible violation
of the Standards of Conduct, the student will receive written notification from the Judicial Affairs Officer. A discipline
conference must be scheduled with the Judicial Affairs Officer within ten business days after the notice is provided. During
the meeting, the Judicial Affairs Officer shall determine if the student’s behavior constitutes a violation of the Standards
of Conduct. If a violation has occurred, the student may be subject to fulfill requirements that support learning and
development. A discipline conference could result in referral to a Student Conduct Board Hearing.
