Sanctions Resulting From Disciplinary Proceedings<br />

The following Sanctions may be used within the UACCM judicial system:<br />

student handbook<br />

• n Counseling: establish a series of meetings between the student and a counselor in order to assist the student in meeting the behavioral<br />

expectations of the College and in meeting his/her individual needs in academic or personal development.<br />

• n Educational Task: a task that benefits the individual, campus, or community.<br />

• n Academic: the immediate removal and withdrawal of the student from a specified course or courses.<br />

• n Reprimand: a written notice to the student that continuation or repetition of specified conduct may be cause <strong>for</strong> additional disciplinary<br />

action.<br />

• n Restitution: compensating the College or other injured party <strong>for</strong> damaged, lost, or destroyed property.<br />

• n Disciplinary Probation: disciplinary action taken as a result of conduct conflicting with College regulations. Disciplinary Probation may<br />

include loss of privileges or use of College services. This probation is to be <strong>for</strong> a specific period of time.<br />

• n Suspension: removal from the College <strong>for</strong> a definite or indefinite period of time. An individual receiving this sanction must leave the<br />

campus upon receipt of the decision and may not enter the campus during his/her period of suspension. Exceptions to this may be granted<br />

by the Vice Chancellor <strong>for</strong> Student Services.<br />

• n Expulsion: permanent removal from the <strong>college</strong> whereby the student may not return or re-enroll at any point in the future.<br />

Conduct Code Appeal Procedures<br />

A student may appeal decisions of the Vice Chancellor <strong>for</strong> Student Services. Appeals will be made to the Vice Chancellor <strong>for</strong> Finance. The<br />

accused must submit a written appeal to the Vice Chancellor <strong>for</strong> Finance within two workdays following the receipt of the hearing decision.<br />

The appeal must state the appeal intention and the rationale <strong>for</strong> the appeal. The Vice Chancellor <strong>for</strong> Finance may decide that there are not<br />

sufficient reasons to grant an appeal hearing and, thus, affirm the original action or decide there is sufficient reason to hold an appeal hearing.<br />

The appeal hearing will have the accused, Vice Chancellor <strong>for</strong> Student Services, and any other witnesses deemed necessary by the Vice<br />

Chancellor <strong>for</strong> Finance. At the appeal hearing, the Vice Chancellor <strong>for</strong> Finance may, after reviewing the case, take action, which will affirm,<br />

reverse, or modify the original action. Sanctions may not increase with the appeal process. The appeal hearing is subject to the same judicial<br />

rights procedural guidelines described previously.<br />

Policies and Procedures Continued<br />

Interim Suspension<br />

Normally, no sanction shall result from the filing of a complaint or from the initiation of disciplinary action. However, pending a hearing or in<br />

extraordinary circumstances, the Vice Chancellor <strong>for</strong> Student Services may provisionally suspend a student where the presence on campus of<br />

the student constitutes a danger to others, himself/herself, or to College property. Such Interim Suspension shall not exceed beyond 72 hours<br />

without the student being given an opportunity to show cause why the suspension shall be discontinued. As with disciplinary suspension, a<br />

student under Interim Suspension may not enter the campus without the permission of the Vice Chancellor <strong>for</strong> Student Services.
