IV. Disciplinary Appeals
Disciplinary decisions of the Student Review Committee or a Student Life dean may
be appealed (under the conditions described below) to the dean of Student Life.
A. Any appeal must be filed within five (5) business days of the decision. Such
appeals shall be in writing and shall be delivered to the dean of Student Life
or designee. Except when required to explain the basis of new evidence, an
appeal shall be limited to a review of the record of the initial hearing and
supporting documents for one or more of the following purposes:
1.
To determine whether the original hearing was conducted fairly in
light of the allegations and evidence presented, and in conformity with
prescribed procedures, giving the university a reasonable opportunity
to prepare and present evidence that the Community Standards
were violated, and giving the respondent a reasonable opportunity to
prepare and to present a rebuttal of those allegations;
2.
To determine whether the decision reached regarding the respondent
was based on substantial evidence; that is, whether the facts in the
case were sufficient to establish that a violation of the Community
Standards occurred;
3.
To determine whether the sanction(s) imposed were appropriate to
the violation of the Community Standards which the student was
found to have committed;
