Current through Register Vol. 24-24, December 15, 2024
(1) The following corrective actions or disciplinary sanctions may be imposed upon students or upon college sponsored student organizations, athletic teams, or living groups found to have violated the student conduct code.
(a)
Warning. A verbal or written
statement to a student that there is a violation and that continued violation
may be cause for further disciplinary action. Warnings are corrective actions,
not disciplinary, and may not be appealed.
(b)
Written reprimand. Notice in
writing that the student has violated one or more terms of this code of conduct
and that continuation of the same or similar behavior may result in more severe
disciplinary action.
(c)
Disciplinary probation. Formal action placing specific conditions
and restrictions upon the student's continued attendance depending upon the
seriousness of the violation and which may include a deferred disciplinary
sanction. If the student subject to a deferred disciplinary sanction is found
in violation of any college rule during the time of disciplinary probation, the
deferred disciplinary sanction which may include, but is not limited to, a
suspension or a dismissal from the college, shall take effect immediately
without further review. Any such sanction shall be in addition to any sanction
or conditions arising from the new violation. Probation may be for a limited
period of time or may be for the duration of the student's attendance at the
college.
(d)
Disciplinary
suspension. Dismissal from the college and from the student status for a
stated period of time. There will be no refund of tuition or fees for the
quarter in which the suspension is imposed.
(e)
Dismissal. The revocation of
all rights and privileges of membership in the college community and exclusion
from the campus and college-owned or controlled facilities without any
possibility of return. There will be no refund of tuition or fees for the
quarter in which the dismissal is imposed.
(2) Disciplinary terms and conditions that may be imposed alone or in conjunction with the imposition of a disciplinary sanction include, but are not limited to, the following:
(a)
Restitution. Reimbursement
for damage to or misappropriation of property, or for injury to persons, or for
reasonable costs incurred by the college in pursuing an investigation or
disciplinary proceeding. This may take the form of monetary reimbursement,
appropriate service, or other compensation.
(b)
Professional evaluation.
Referral for drug, alcohol, psychological or medical evaluation by an
appropriately certified or licensed professional may be required. The student
may choose the professional within the scope of practice and with the
professional credentials as defined by the college. The student will sign all
necessary releases to allow the college access to any such evaluation. The
student's return to college may be conditioned upon compliance with
recommendations set forth in such a professional evaluation. If the evaluation
indicates that the student is not capable of functioning within the college
community, the student will remain suspended until future evaluation recommends
that the student is capable of reentering the college and complying with the
rules of conduct.
(c)
Not in
good standing. A student may be deemed "not in good standing" with the
college. If so, the student shall be subject to the following restrictions:
(i) Ineligible to hold an office in any
student organization recognized by the college or to hold any elected or
appointed office of the college.
(ii) Ineligible to represent the college to
anyone outside the college community in any way, including representing the
college at any official function, or any forms of intercollegiate competition
or representation.
(d)
No contact order. An order directing a student to have no contact
with a specified student, college employee, a member of the college community,
or a particular college facility.
(e)
Educational sanction. The
college may require the student to complete an educational activity or
experience directly related to the violation committed, at the student's
expense.
