4.5学生组织投诉解决程序

Student organizations are responsible for abiding by University policy, 《bc菠菜导航》(简称《bc菠菜导航》), and all other agreements between the University and 学生组织. Complaints involving a registered student organization will be addressed using the procedures described below. Complaints against individual members of a student organization may also be addressed under the appropriate University policies and procedures (4.5).

The standard of proof used when determining whether a student organization is responsible for a violation of the Code will be the preponderance of evidence, 或者一个“可能性大于不可能性”的标准. If it is determined that a violation of the Code is more likely than not to have occurred, appropriate educational and disciplinary sanctions will be assigned. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that no violation of the Code occurred, 此案将被驳回.

The Office of 学生品行及操守 (SCI) investigates, 听到, and makes the decisions for all allegations of misconduct regardless of group involvement or affiliation.
