What are Augustanas policies on notifying parents of drug and alcohol violations?
A student’s parents will be contacted in the event of a third violation of the college’s alcohol policy, and after the second offense of an illegal drug violation. If an offense is likely to result in a disciplinary suspension, the college will ask the student to notify his/her parents. If parents are not contacted by the student, the college will contact the parents. Parent communication is allowed under recent amendments to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act.
