So, SJS makes the final determination about how to handle the students behavior. What happens next?
Depending on the situation, a student could be assigned any one of a number of sanctions for disruptive classroom behavior. These sanctions are determined after a judicial process is put forth and the student is found responsible for a violation of the Code. Possible sanctions include: censure (written warning), disciplinary probation, suspension (temporary separation from the University), or expulsion (a permanent separation from the University), among others. The Office of Student Judicial Services endeavors to determine an appropriate outcome for each situation, while encouraging students to accept responsibility for their actions and conduct themselves as adult citizens of the George Washington community.
