How does the judicial process work?
When a student is documented, an incident report is submitted to the Judicial Affairs Office. The Judicial Affairs Office is responsible for reviewing and handling all reports of alleged violations of the Code of Student Conduct. When a report is received, a judicial officer determines how the case will be processed based upon the allegation and evidence presented. The alleged violation can be handled through one of the following: a. Residence Hall Director Meeting or Hearing b. Disciplinary Conference c. Judicial Hearing What is a Residence Hall Director (RHD) Meeting? RHDs will adjudicate some cases of alleged student misconduct. The residence hall director will notify the students in writing of alleged charges. If a student accepts responsibility, the decision is considered final and there is no appeal. However, if the student does not accept responsibility, the RHD will explain his/her option for requesting a Residence Hall Director (RHD) Hearing. What is a Disciplinary Conference?
