Preparing Personnel for Student Conduct Board

Preparing Personnel for Student Conduct Board
Start Date: 7-Jun-10 0:00 AM
End Time: 7-Jun-10 12:00 PM
Location: On-Line Class
Speaker: Shawn McGuirk

Event Details:

How do you prepare your conduct board? Questions that need to be addressed probably include: who comprises the board? Is it students, faculty, or staff? Maybe it’s a combination of all three. And then we must ask… are they returning board members who are already familiar with the conduct process? How many of them are brand new and will require additional training? If students are involved, do you allow them on the board if they have a judicial record? If so, do you identify violations whereby students may not serve on the board (e.g. if a student was on probation, can they still apply to be a board member? What if suspended?). How is it determined whether a case goes to your board, or is heard by an administrator? Do students who have allegedly violated policy have a ‘say’ in who hears their case? These are all important questions that require much consideration in order to ensure a fair and just hearing process.

Course runs from June 7 - June 25, 2010 meeting one or two nights weekly depending upon instructor. See course syllabus for more information and registration details at http://thehousinguniversity.com/asca/spring2010course2.html
