Does the University ever consider using Alternate Dispute Resolution–mediation or arbitration–instead of going to court?
In certain cases, mediation or arbitration, before the AAA or JAMS, may be appropriate. But, unless the contract stipulates that disputes will be resolved by mediation or arbitration, we would not be able to go to arbitration or mediation unless both sides agree. Arbitration or mediation may be considered in matters involving one or more of the following criteria: the need for a relatively speedy and binding decision, where confidentiality is important, commercially-related disputes, and where the dispute could best be resolved by expert.
