University Judicial System
Responsible behavior is expected of all Piedmont students at all times. Violations of the Student Code of Conduct may result in varying degrees of consequences. The University is not designed nor equipped to rehabilitate persons who pose a threat to the campus community or disrupt the learning environment. It may be necessary, therefore, to separate those individuals from the campus and end their relationship with the University.
When a student is observed violating a campus policy, a campus official (e.g., residence life professional staff member, resident assistant, faculty/staff member, Campus Police officer) will complete an incident report, available from the Office of Student Life. Students who witness a violation of campus policy should contact a campus official for assistance.
Student Conduct Procedures and Due Process
Student disciplinary matters are to be reported to the office of Student Life and Leadership. The Vice President of Student Affairs, the Dean of Students/Director of Residential Living, and the Associate and Assistant Directors of Residential Living are the primary campus officials who address policy violations along with the support of campus police. It is the goal of the university to deal with all disciplinary matters in a timely manner and include a meeting with the student to discuss what occurred, if any violations occurred, and discuss possible sanctions. Students found responsible for Student Code of Conduct violations will be adjudicated and assigned sanctions.
1. Notification of Student Conduct Violation(s) and the Student Conduct Hearing Process
The Dean of Students will conduct an investigation of any reported student/student organization or club misconduct. After the investigation is completed, the student conduct conference will be assigned to a hearing officer or conduct hearing board. Notification will inform the student/student organization of the date and time of student conduct conference and nature of the incident.
Reporting Party - the person who filed the report/complaint
Respondent - the person responding to the report/complaint against them
Fact Witness – a person(s) who witnessed alleged violation(s) and can provide fact.
Due Process Rights
- All parties will receive notification of the date, time, and location of hearing, 2-3 business days before the hearing.
- The reporting and responding party may both seek assistance from an advisor. The advisor is limited to advising the student and may not otherwise participate in the hearing. In the event that the advisor goes beyond this role, it will be deemed a disruption of the hearing process, and the advisor may be removed from the hearing. The reporting and responding party are only allowed one advisor in the hearing.
- The reporting party is allowed to present fact witness(es) and evidence. A reporting student, witness, or other participating party who is verbally abusive, disruptive to the process, or persists in trying to inappropriately and substantively participate in the process after being warned to cease and desist may be asked to leave and may be precluded from attendance at future meetings. The University has the right at all times to determine what constitutes appropriate behavior.
- The responding party is allowed to present fact witness(es) and evidence. A responding student, witness, or other participating party who is verbally abusive, disruptive to the process, or persists in trying to inappropriately and substantively participate in the process after being warned to cease and desist may be asked to leave and may be precluded from attendance at future meetings. The University has the right at all times to determine what constitutes appropriate behavior.
- The hearing officer or committee will address questions pertaining to the incident.
- After all witness(es) are heard and evidence presented, the hearing officer or committee will make a decision and assign sanctions as deemed necessary. The decision will be based on the preponderance of the evidence standard.
- The right to know the sanctions that may be imposed if found responsible or a plea of responsible.
- The right to an appeal that is outline in the appeal process in the Piedmont University student handbook.
Procedures during Student Conduct Conference
Student Conduct Conferences shall be conducted by the guidelines listed below. Accused students subject to less severe sanctions may, at the discretion of the Dean of Students, be afforded but are not guaranteed the guidelines outlined below. These guidelines are as follows:
- Student Conduct Conferences will be conducted in an orderly manner. The student conduct conference is typically conducted in private and may involve joint conferences where two or more students are charged in the same fact pattern. In student conduct conferences involving more than one accused, students may be permitted in the student conduct conferences concerning each student to be conducted either separately or jointly
- The respondent student is expected to attend the entire portion of the student conduct conference at which information is received (excluding deliberations) provided the accused student and the accused student’s advisor appear at the designated time and do not inhibit the proceeding. Admission of any other person, other than an advisor or witness, to the student conduct conference shall be at the discretion of the Dean of Students or the designated hearing officer.
- The Hearing Officer will review the violation with the student.
- The student will enter plea to each charge violation(s) and sign the document indicating their plea. There will be no finding of responsibility solely because a student remains silent during a student conduct conference. Accused students are responsible for presenting their own information.
- The responding party will have an opportunity to be heard in their own defense, either by oral testimony or written statement. If an accused student with notice, does not appear at a student conduct conference, the information in support of charges shall be presented, considered, and a decision may be made. Reasonable accommodation can be requested in order to provide access for students with disabilities. If a student withdraws from the university after an alleged violation, the hearing shall be held in their absence and possible sanctions shall be enacted, if found responsible. All findings and recommendations must be supported by evidence of policy, rule, or regulation violations by the responding party.
- Pertinent records, exhibits, student impact statements and other written statements may be accepted as information for consideration. Student impact statements and other documents determined at the discretion of the chairperson shall be reviewed during the sanction phase only.
- The focus of inquiry in student conduct proceedings shall be the determination of whether a violation of University rules occurred and, if relevant, collect information to inform factors that are considered for issuing sanctions. In all initial student conduct proceedings, the burden of proof shall rest with the University, and said burden of proof shall be by a preponderance of the information. Preponderance of the information is defined as the greater weight and degree of credible information admitted in the conference. A determination shall be made on the basis of whether it is more likely than not that the accused student violated the Student Conduct Code.
- The accused student shall be informed of the outcome of the Student Conduct Conference in writing. Records of the outcome will be kept by the Dean of Students in a secure place. FERPA will be followed in regard to access to student conduct records.
- At the conclusion of the hearing, the student conduct committee's hearing officer will prepare in writing the findings and sanctions, as well as any recommendations in the Student Conduct Hearing Report Form. These findings and recommendations will be forwarded to the Dean of Students within 72 hours of the hearing's completion. This time limit may be extended in extenuating circumstances with the approval of the Dean of Students or Vice President of Student Affairs. If sanctions are imposed, a copy of the student conduct report shall be sent to the Dean of Students.
- Student conduct standards as outlined in the Student Handbook shall be administered by the Vice President for Student Affairs and/or designee. Violations of Residence Life or campus rules that are specified in the Residence Hall or University Housing Contracts will be within the jurisdiction of Residence Life and/or Campus Police.
-
The focus of student conduct proceedings is to determine whether the University’s standards of conduct have been violated. To this end, student conduct proceedings attempt to balance an understanding and knowledge of the students’ needs with the needs of the University community.
-
Individuals may bring a complaint against a student for alleged violations of the Student Conduct Code. Any complaint should be submitted as soon as possible after the event takes place. Such complaints may be submitted to the Student Life Office.
-
An investigation may be initiated to determine if the complaint has merit. Complaints may result in charges, a form of alternative dispute resolution, or dismissal of complaint. These decisions are made at the sole discretion of the University.
-
All charges shall be presented to the accused student in written form. The accused student will be given at least one (1) University business days to prepare for a conference. In all student conduct proceedings, the accused student shall be presumed not responsible until it is proven that a violation of the University rules occurred by a preponderance of the information standard.
Conduct Hearings/Student Conduct Conference
The hearing is an official proceeding of the Piedmont University Student Discipline system. It is an informal hearing with the mission to determine:
1. what occurred
2. if what occurred is a violation of University regulations, and
3. to impose an appropriate sanction if a violation has occurred.
The Hearing is not a Court of Law where allegations must be proven “beyond a reasonable doubt”. During the hearing, the allegations must be proven based upon “a preponderance of evidence.” While all referred students are encouraged to participate in the hearing process, PU will adjudicate all cases and render a decision regardless of referred student participation. A notice of allegations will be sent to each student upon completion of the hearing process.
Hearings can be completed by Associate Director of Residence Life, Assistant Director of Residence Life, Dean of Students, Vice President of Student Affairs and Campus Police or their designee. If it is academic in nature, the Academic Dean of that college or their designee could also be included. Typically, Associate and Assistant Directors of Residence Life will hold hearing conferences for first offenses and the Dean of students, et. All, will determine the best route for 2nd offenses or more serious acts of violence or federal and state law violations.
Students have the right to appeal the outcome of the decision to the Vice President for Student Affairs. This appeal must be requested and submitted in writing within three calendar days of the date on the sanction adjudication letter.
Appeal Process
A student may appeal an assigned sanction when:
• The student was not accorded their procedural rights as outlined in this Handbook;
• New evidence that was unknown or unavailable at the time of the initial hearing has become available which would have significantly altered its results; or,
• The sanction imposed is substantially disproportionate to the offense (including any consideration of the student’s prior offense(s)).
The appeal must be submitted in writing within three calendar days of the date on the sanction letter to the Dean of Students or Vice President of Student Life and Leadership.
