COMMUNITY STANDARDS PROCESS. When a suspected incident occurs, an incident report is written by University staff, security personnel, and/or other witnesses. These reports are then reviewed by Campus Living Management to conduct an appropriate investigation. If the investigation requires further information, Campus Living Management will contact the individual(s) involved through e-mail to set up a meeting. The e-mail will request the individual to book a time to meet with Campus Living Management to discuss the details of the alleged incident. During the meeting, the individual will have the opportunity to give their own statement regarding the incident in question. The individual will receive incident related information and will be able to ask questions that may arise during the meeting. Failure to meet with Campus Living Management within five business days of the meeting request may waive an individual’s right to provide testimony and/or their own version of events. This timeframe may be reduced during circumstances where the safety or wellbeing of an individual or the Residence community is at risk. As a result, all decisions and accompanying sanctions will be determined based solely on the information that Campus Living has previously received. Based on the information obtained during the student conduct meeting, Campus Living Management will decide whether or not the individual was responsible for the incident that violated Campus Living policies. If the individual is found responsible for violating Campus Living policies, they will receive documentation regarding the outcome of the student conduct meeting and any accompanying sanctions. All Residents have the right to appeal the decision in writing to Campus Living within 5 business days of receiving documentation. Students have the choice of pursuing one of two appeal processes; to the Director of Campus Living or the Local Appeals Committee (LAC). See Section 3.6 “Appeals Process” for more information.
