The President shall review and determine appeals
from the decisions of the Hearing Board. The President has the
authority to uphold, modify or overrule those decisions, or to
return the matter to the Hearing Board for further

the State Board of Education when, if and in such manner as the
State Board of Education determines that such appeal shall be

Investigation of Violation and Recommendation
by Director of Student Life |
The Director
of Student Life or a designee, appointed by the dean or
director, shall receive all student judicial complaints and,
shall investigate all complaints against students alleging
violations of the Student Code of Conduct. The investigation,
should include, if possible, an interview with the student in
which the student is told of the alleged violation and given an
opportunity to deny or explain it. The investigator shall make
an initial determination of whether the violation occurred and,
if so, his/her recommendation of the sanction or educational
remedy to be imposed. If the investigator determines that a
violation of the Student Code of Conduct has occurred, he/she
shall make a written report which shall identify the alleged
violation, set forth their determination and recommendation of
the sanction to be imposed. If the report of the investigator
is adverse to the student (the report finds that the student was
guilty of a violation and recommends any sanction), the affected
student may request a hearing before the student Hearing Board
by delivering a written request for a hearing to the Director of
Student Life within seven (7) calendar days after the date on
which he or she is served with a copy of the investigator's
report. The report shall also advise the student that the
report and the recommended sanction of the investigator shall
become final if a timely request for hearing is not made. |
