Recognizing the importance of a safe and healthful work place, the Board agrees to make reasonable efforts to insure that such conditions conform to applicable statutes. B. The Board and BCC’s administration will support and assist faculty members in dealing with inappropriate student behavior, including assaults, batteries, or threats of bodily harm, but within the parameters of applicable laws and regulations. A faculty member shall immediately report to College Security, and to the campus or division administration when feasible, any work-related incident that involves an assault upon his/her person, and/or the threat of bodily harm, while in the performance of College-assigned duties. Any faculty member who sustains an injury as a result of such incidents will not be required to utilize accumulated sick leave for absence from his/her College-assigned duties. This provision does not imply, however, that the Board nor the administration of the College will provide legal counsel or otherwise defray or reimburse faculty members for expenses incurred in such instances. C. Disruptive Behavior: A faculty member may temporarily dismiss a student from class for disruptive behavior. A faculty member may request to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (or his/her designee) that a student who consistently and willfully acts in such a manner as to disrupt the course and interfere with the teaching and learning processes will be removed from a course. At the faculty member’s request, his/her supervising administrator will schedule a meeting with the instructor and the student to attempt to reach an accord satisfactory to both parties prior to the student’s return to the class. If the student and the faculty member cannot reach such an accord, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (or his/her designee) will officially notify the student of his rights as provided in the pertinent procedures and rules published by the College. If, in the opinion of the College administration, the student’s behavior violates F.S. 877.13, the student may be withdrawn, or, at the discretion of the administration, may be transferred to another section taught by a different faculty member.
