Section 495A-121-066. Appeal of the student/faculty disciplinary committee's decision.

(1) The student will be advised of his/her right to present within seven working days, a written statement of appeal to the president of the college before action is taken on the decision of the committee. In the case of a student under eighteen years of age, written notice of any action involving dismissal or disciplinary probation may be sent to the parents or guardian of the student.

(2) If the student concludes that the action of the disciplinary committee is inappropriate, the student may appeal the matter to the president of the college. The president or his/her designated representative, after reviewing the case, including the report of the committee and any statements filed by the student, shall either indicate his/her approval of the conclusions of the committee by sustaining its decision, shall give directions as to what other disciplinary action shall be taken by modifying its decision or shall nullify previous sanctions imposed by reversing its decision. The president shall then notify the official who initiated the proceedings, the student and the committee chair. The decision of the president is final.
