What is a Departmental Hearing?
If you are not eligible for a waiver (because you have a previous violation; because the suggested sanction is probation or greater; or because you, the chair, and the instructor cannot agree on the waiver), a departmental hearing will occur. You will have the opportunity to present documents and witnesses to the chair of the department in support of your case. The chair will render a decision based on information presented at the hearing.
