Judicial Council Contact: Mark Allen, Ph.D., Dean of Students In order to establish an internal review at the university level that provides an opportunity for students charged with violations of University policies, as set forth in guidelines for student conduct, the University Judicial Council (UJC) was established. Jurisdiction Where sanctions have been administered by an agent of the institution having original jurisdiction to hear and decide questions of student conduct that run counter to the guidelines set forth in the Student Handbook, it is the responsibility of the Judicial Council to review cases upon appeal if it meets one of the following criteria: - new evidence relative to the original outcome - procedural error by the original adjudicating agent (or group) that had a detrimental effect on the outcome of the hearing - inappropriate sanction based on the policy violation If an appeal is successful the UJC will require a new hearing of the case by the original adjudicating body, or a new adjudicating body, and that outcome is final. The University President shall have final appellate jurisdiction in all cases of indefinite suspension or disciplinary dismissal. Final appeal of decisions of indefinite suspension or disciplinary dismissal will be filed within three academic days following notification of the sanction with the Office of the President of the University and shall be adjudicated by the President as promptly as possible. Procedure A student must request a review of his/her case within five academic days of oral notification to the student of the initial adjudicating body’s decision (appeal request form). The Dean of Students and another member of the UJC will review the student’s reason(s) to request an appeal along with any relevant documentation involving the original decision. An appeal will be granted only if there appears to be: new evidence of 117
significance relative to the original outcome; procedural error in the original hearing that was detrimental to the outcome; or an inappropriate sanction relative to the policy violation. The alleged violator will be notified within seven academic days of the request of a decision to grant an appeal. If an appeal is granted, the UJC must give written notice to all parties concerned of the nature of the appeal and the date and time of the appeals session. All appeals sessions will be held within ten academic days of the approval to grant an appeal. The UJC will ask the alleged violator to provide a detailed, written statement, describing his/her position relative to the case. The charging party will provide rationale for making the initial decision. Upon request from the UJC, the charging party will provide any documentation relevant to the case. The alleged violator will have the opportunity to review the charging party’s rationale, along with supporting documentation, prior to submitting his/her statement. The Council will not hold any regular or special sessions without at least four members present of which there shall be at least one member of the faculty, Student Affairs staff, and the student body. Notification of the decision of the Judicial Council is sent to the Dean of Students and to the alleged violator. All sessions of the Council, in its discretion, are closed. The Council has the power to govern its own internal proceedings and establish its procedures. Decisions of the Council are final. Membership The University Judicial Council (UJC) consists of seven judges and a council clerk. The judges of the UJC are appointed by the President of the University (or designee) in the following manner: 1. Faculty members: Two members of the faculty are appointed from a panel of nominees recommended by the faculty. 2. Student Affairs staff members: Two members of Student Affairs staff (one being the Dean of Students) are appointed by the Vice-President of Student Affairs. 3. Student members: Three members of the student body are appointed from a panel recommended by the Student Government President. 4. The council clerk is appointed from a panel of nominees recommended by the Student Government President. The clerk serves as the official recorder for the Council. Terms of original appointment for all UJC judges and the clerk are for one academic year, but are eligible for reappointment. All student judges and the clerk must meet the following requirements: 1. Be a full-time student (as defined in the University Bulletin) who has achieved a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.00. 118
