Respondents <\/span>who have been found responsible for violating the Code of Conduct<\/a> (the Code) may file an appeal online to the Vice President of Student Affairs and Dean of Students or their designee by following the procedures described in Section 27 of the Code<\/a>. An appeal is not available for every respondent found responsible. Respondents may only appeal decisions arising out of a Disciplinary Hearing or conference that resulted in a suspension or expulsion from the University, with the following exceptions:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. In cases involving violations of Title IX, both the respondent and complainant may appeal regardless of the outcome.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Appeals of decisions emanating from residence hall disciplinary proceedings that result in the loss of housing may be appealed as outlined in Section 27 of the Code<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    An appeal is not a rehearing of the case and will not be granted based on a Respondent\u2019s disagreement with a decision; rather, an appeal is an administrative review of the investigation and hearing process to identify any procedural errors, consider newly discovered information, and\/or assess the proportionality of sanctions.<\/p>\n

    Instructions for submitting a request for an appeal are included in all University outcome letters for which a request for an appeal is possible.<\/p>\n
