Behavioral Standards Committee

The Behavioral Standards Committee (BSC) is a standing committee of the University composed of representatives from each program as well as student representatives from the program where the alleged complaint originates. The purpose of the Behavior Standards Committee is to:

1. Review policies related to student conduct, sanctions for misconduct, appeals, and procedures for accepting, investigating, and hearing allegations of student misconduct.
2. Conduct hearings on allegations of student misconduct, as requested by the Dean of Students and Alumni Services, or designee, and report findings and recommendations to the Dean of Students and Alumni Services.

The complete committee structure and function can be found in Appendix II. The Behavioral Standards Committee does not consider complaints of Sexual Harassment or Sexual Violence. Refer to the Student Handbook for the complete Title IX policy.
