Section 495A-121-044. Disciplinary sanctions.

Sanctions for violations of college regulations or conduct may be imposed independent of any action taken by civil authorities. In the case of minors, misconduct may be referred to parents or legal guardians. More than one sanction may be recommended. Sanctions may include, but are not limited to:

(1) "Disciplinary warning" shall mean oral notice of violation of college rules and regulations.

(2) "Reprimand" shall mean formal action after censuring a student for violation of college rules or regulations for failure to satisfy the college's expectations regarding conduct. The disciplinary official makes reprimands in writing to the student. A reprimand indicates to the student that continuation or repetition of the specific conduct involved or other misconduct will result in one or more serious disciplinary actions described below.

(3) "Disciplinary probation" shall mean formal action placing conditions upon the student's continued attendance. Notice will be made in writing, specifying the period of probation and the conditions of the probation. Disciplinary probation warns the student that any further misconduct will automatically raise the question of dismissal from the college.

(4) "Restitution" shall mean compensation for loss, damage, or injury to the appropriate party in the form of service, money, or material replacement.

(5) "Discretionary sanctions" may include, but are not limited to, restricted computer systems/network access, work assignments, service to college or community, mandatory class/workshop attendance or other discretionary assignments such as educational interventions intended as learning experiences.

(6) "Loss of privileges" shall mean loss of specific college privileges for a specified period of time. These may include, but are not limited to, computer/internet access, student activities or club participation.

(7) "Summary suspension" shall mean temporary dismissal from the college for a period of time during which an investigation and/or formal disciplinary procedures are pending. Summary suspension is predicated upon a reasonable belief that the student presents an imminent danger to college property, to other students, to employees of the college or is of significant disruption to the educational process.

(8) "Suspension" shall mean temporary dismissal from the college and termination of student status.

(9) "Expulsion" shall mean dismissal from the college and termination of student status.

(10) "No contact" shall mean restriction from entering specific college areas and/or all forms of contact with certain individual(s).
