Eligibility

Composition

• Two (2) faculty members (one (1) from the University College, one (1) from Tech1 or Tech2) and two (2) alternates: two-year terms
• One (1) Student Services representative and one (1) alternate: two-year terms

Purpose

The Student Conduct Committee reviews reported cases involving student behavior that is alleged to be a violation of the Student Conduct Code. In most cases, as indicated in the policy, an administrative disposition is attempted before the case is referred to this committee.

Function

The Student Conduct Committee:

• Reviews possible violations of the Student Conduct Code on a case-by-case basis.
• Engages in fact finding, investigating, and analyzing the case.
• Conducts a hearing wherein the case is heard.
• Documents the case and recommends sanctions, if appropriate, to the Chancellor of the College.

Workload

The Student Conduct Committee meets only when there are cases referred to it by the Dean of Student Services. Hearings will usually not take place during the last two weeks of each semester, nor during the summer. During these periods, a hearing before an administrator may be conducted for students accused of violating the Conduct Code, or special Committee hearings may be arranged.
