Navigating the Conduct Process

The graphics provide an overview of the conduct process. Details about student rights, processes, and procedures can be found in the below content.
The conduct process involves several key elements which include receiving notice of the student conduct meeting and the actual meeting itself. During the meeting the student meets with the hearing officer where they are able to learn their rights as a student, and provide their perspective of the incident. After the student conduct meeting occurs the hearing officer determines any violations that have occurred, appropriate sanctions, and sends the outcome letter to the student.

These sanctions include those that are of accountability, interventional, and educational in nature. Students also have the right to appeal outcomes listed in the student conduct meeting outcome letter.
