A student who demonstrates the behaviors listed above, may be on emergency (interim) suspension from the University and/or University Housing on an interim basis pending an administrative meeting. The decision to post interim suspension will be communicated to the student in writing.

The student will be contacted in writing by a University official to schedule an administrative meeting with the Vice President for Student Development & Dean of Students, or designee. The student has a right to be accompanied by an advisor or advocate (MBU faculty, staff, or student or parent). The student can provide testimony and relevant supportive documents at the meeting. The University official will review all documents before making a decision to withdrawal.

If a student is withdrawn under the provisions listed above, the student can appeal the decision by providing a written notice of appeal to the Vice President for Student Development & Dean of Students.

Upon receipt of the appeal the VPSD&DOS shall afford the student a meeting at which time the student may present supporting evidence and reply to evidence presented by others. The student has the right to be accompanied by an advisor or advocate, but the student may not have an attorney present at the meeting. The VPSD&DOS will review all information and inform the student of the final decision in writing.

Deviations from Established Accountability (Disciplinary) Procedures

A student accused of violating University disciplinary regulations may be diverted from the normal disciplinary process by the Vice President for Student Development & Dean of Students, if the VPSD&DOS believes that the student is suffering from a medical, mental or emotional disorder and this disorder has influenced the student’s behavior. In such an event, the VPSD&DOS may refer a student for evaluation, at the student’s expense, by an independent licensed psychiatrist or psychologist chosen by the University.

Any pending disciplinary action may be withheld until the evaluation is completed at the discretion of the Vice President for Student Development & Dean of Students. A student who fails to cooperate and complete the evaluation may be withdrawn, or referred for disciplinary action, or both. Finally, as a condition of continued enrollment at the University, the Vice President for Student Development & Dean of Students may require the student to secure counseling or therapy.
