Sanctioning

Students who go through the judicial process and have been found responsible for violating the Code of Student Conduct will be assigned sanctions as a result of the hearing. Possible sanctions are as follows:

1. Warning: Written or verbal notice that the student has been found in violation of a specific regulation, and that repetition or continuation of this violation may result in further disciplinary action.
2. Restitution: Reimbursement by the student to the College or a member of the College community to cover the cost of damage to or misappropriation of property.
3. Restriction: Withdrawal or restriction of certain privileges for a specified period of time.
4. Work Sanctions: The assignment of tasks or work appropriate to the violation, which will benefit all or part of the College community.
5. Creative Sanctions: Assignments imposed in an attempt to serve an additional educational purpose. These "educational projects" may include any of the following (this list is not exhaustive): educational newsletter, interview with a professional in the community, creating a bulletin board, planning and implementing a program, or writing a paper on a related topic.
6. Disciplinary Probation: An official and final warning directing the student to exhibit good conduct during a specified probation period. Further violations during this period will require that the student automatically return to the judicial system and, if found in violation once more, face a more severe sanction.
7. Housing Contract Revocation: Temporary or indefinite separation from living in on-campus housing. Normally, housing contract revocation also involves restriction from all housing facilities.
8. Disciplinary Suspension: Temporary separation from the College with the right to apply for re-admission to the Vice President and Dean of the College. The terms of the suspension may be set or indefinite, and special conditions upon re-admission may be designated.
9. Expulsion: Permanent separation from the College.

Minimum Expected Sanctions: Some violations of the Code of Student Conduct may lead to specific sanctions, depending on any mitigating circumstances. These sanctions are set as a guide to help maintain consistency within the system but the sanctions can be adjusted on a case by case basis to account for any mitigating circumstances.
