Disciplinary Probation:
A disciplinary
probation is a formal action of the District
against a student for misconduct. The action
may result in the student being removed from all
College organization offices and being denied
the privilege of participating in all College or
student-sponsored activities, including public
performances. Disciplinary probation may be
imposed for a period not to exceed one year.
Individual responsible: Designated Administrator
or Superintendent/President.
Suspension:
Suspension is a formal action of
the District against a student, and the action
denies the student the right to occupy any
portion of the campus, to attend any class
and/or to participate in any of the activities of
the College for one or more terms. Individual
responsible: Designated Administrator or
Superintendent/President.
Summary Suspension:
A single student,
or a group of students, may be summarily
suspended by the President of the College
when, in his or her judgment, such action
is the most appropriate means available for
alleviating the threat of a disorder which could
prevent the continued normal conduct of the
affairs of the academic community. Summary
suspension imposes the same penalty as does
the regular suspension, except the summary
suspension is limited to only that period of time
necessary to ensure that the purposes of the
summary suspension are accomplished, and in
any case, for not more than a maximum of ten
(10) school days. Should it appear necessary
for a summary suspension to continue in effect
over an extended period, steps must be taken
promptly and not later than two (2) school
days after the effective date of the summary
suspension. Individual responsible: Designated
Administrator or Superintendent/President.
Expulsion:
Expulsion is a formal action of
the District against a student and the action
denies the student the right to occupy any
portion of the campus, to attend any class, and/
or to participate in any activities of the College
indefinitely. Individual responsible: Designated
Administrator or Superintendent/President.
The act of expulsion must be reported to and
approved by the Board of Trustees.
Removal from a Class or Program
An instructor is authorized to remove a student
from class on the day of the incident and the
next class meeting. A student may be removed
from a class or program for the remainder of the
term following the process described below. The
types of reasons for removal include violations
of the Student Code of Conduct (see “Student
Code of Conduct” in this handbook).
Steps involved if you are removed
from a class:
1. The instructor will inform you that you are
removed from the class or program. If you
refuse to leave, the police may be called.
2. A report will be submitted to the Designated
Administrator
3. The instructor and the Designated
Administrator will discuss the situation and
determine appropriate action. Action may
include removal for up to two class meetings
or the remainder of the term.
4. If permanent removal is recommended, a
Student Conduct Hearing will be scheduled
(see “Student Conduct Procedure” in this
handbook). Until the process is completed:
• You may not attend class
• The instructor may not drop you from the
class
EOPS/CARE Programs

Services)
is a student support program for
educationally and economically disadvantaged
students, funded by the State of California and
Siskiyou Joint Community College District. It
is designed to provide opportunities in higher
education for students with academic potential
who, without the EOPS assistance, may not
have chosen a college education.
