Overview of Procedures

The name of a complainant/grievant and all details with respect to the complaint and its resolution will be maintained in a confidential file in the Office of the Registrar. All such information will be kept confidential, provided however that such information may be disclosed when administratively required, required to complete the investigation, and/or required by legal compulsion, or when the University believes it is obligated to report the matter to employers or potential employers, educational institution or agencies seeking information as to the complainant or to otherwise take independent formal action. In cases of academic dishonesty (see page 3 discussing violations of the student code of conduct), the Dean or Program Director/Lead may consult with the instructor in finalizing the academic actions that may be taken. The University may post or describe specific conduct complaints and their resolutions, as long as individuals’ names are redacted from any such posting or communication.
