Within the conduct process students have the right to:
- A fair and thorough conduct meeting.
- Be informed of all potential policy violations prior to the conduct meeting.
- An alternate conduct officer in the event of obvious and/or significant bias.
- Review the incident report(s) and sanction letter(s).
- One level of appeal within the Housing and Residence Education conduct system.
- Have a support person present at any conduct meeting pertaining to his/her conduct. The support person serves as an advisor to the student, not a representative, and may be a student, faculty or staff member, family member or another person. The support person may observe the process and provide support and guidance to the student as needed. Resident Assistants (RAs) may not serve in the supportperson role due to the potential for conflict of interest; however, the RA can serve as a resource for students before and after the conduct meeting. The support person may not have a conflict of interest with the situation in question.
