SGA Mission Statement

Code of Student Conduct violation: Failure to Comply. At the conclusion of the investigation, there will be an Investigation Summary created and the Office of Student Conduct will schedule a conference with the president of the organization and the organization advisor (if available) to review and address the investigation findings. The president will receive an Outcome Letter to inform them of the investigation findings. This letter will also outline any concerns the Office of Student Conduct has and provide information on the next steps in the process. Student organizations found responsible for violating the Student Code of Conduct will have two options to resolve their case. Those options can be found and defined below: i. Organization Accountability Agreement (OAA): In consultation with the organization (and their headquarters, or advisor where applicable) the University will work to develop a plan including sanctions that affect the organization’s standing with the University and educational sanctions to address the violations. The organization accountability agreement may not be appealed. If after 60 school days the University and the student organization cannot come to an agreement the organization will be sanctioned through option B. Additional violations committed during the duration of the organization accountability agreement may be cause for the agreement to be extended and/or altered. ii. Sanctions assigned by a Conduct Educator: The conduct educator overseeing the investigation will assign the sanctions deemed appropriate to the organization. The assigned sanctions may be appealed by following the steps outlined in the Student Conduct Process. In certain situations, the Office of Student Conduct reserves the right to withdraw the student organizations option of working on an Organization Accountability Agreement. If a Student organization is found responsible for violating additional policies after an Organization

Accountability Agreement has been implemented or sanctions been assigned, the organization will have the following options below. i. Amendment to the original OAA: Collaborate with the Office of Student Conduct and develop additional accountability measures in concert of the existing document. ii. Sanctions assigned by a Conduct Educator: The conduct educator overseeing the investigation will assign the sanctions deemed appropriate to the organization in consideration of the existing agreement or sanctions. The assigned sanctions may be appealed by following the steps outlined in the Student Conduct Process.
