What are hearings like?
Hearings are conducted by the Student Conduct Committee or a Hearing Officer. The Committee is made up of student members, faculty members, and staff members. The hearing is formal, students are able to present witnesses and documents to support their case. Students may elect to have representation. Witnesses are subject to cross-examination. Upon hearing the evidence, the Committee must find by a preponderance of the evidence (more likely than not) that the student is either culpable or not culpable.
