Community Standards Sanctions

Students who are found responsible for violations of policies and/or standards of the University are subject to a variety of sanctions depending on circumstances of the violation. As with the overall Community Standards Process, sanctions are meant to be educational. Punitive or monetary sanctions are given in some circumstances to cover costs incurred from a violation (e.g. the cost for repairing or replacing damaged University property).  The hearing boards and hearing officers determine applicable sanctions for findings of responsibility in policy and/or standards violations.
