Student Code of Conduct Approved: July 3, 2018; Last Updated: August 2023 14 SECTION V: Interim Administrative Actions Interim administrative actions are not a sanction, but are temporary measures, if reasonable under the circumstances, that may be taken against a student pending resolution of a college investigation and/or the student conduct process, up to and including the finalization of the appeal process, with the exception of a Cease and Desist Directive. A Cease and Desist Directive may be issued as a non-disciplinary directive for a temporary duration of time, such as, until one party is no longer a student at the College. The Director of Student Support Services or designee or the Associate Dean of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion or designee may impose an Interim Administrative Action. A. Interim Administrative Actions include, but are not limited to: a. Interim Suspension: When it is reasonably believed that the continued presence of a student would constitute a threat to the health and safety of the community, the student may be placed on an Interim Suspension. Students placed on interim suspension will be denied access to college premises (including classes) and all other activities or privileges for which the student might otherwise be eligible. b. No Contact Order: an official notification to the accused/Respondent that they must no longer contact another person(s), referred to as the protected individual/person. Continuing to contact the protected individual/person is a violation of college policy subject to conduct charges. If the accused/Respondent and the protected individual/person observe each other in a public place, it is the responsibility of the accused/Respondent to leave the area immediately and without directly contacting the protected person. The College may establish an appropriate schedule for the accused/Respondent to access applicable institution buildings and property at a time when such buildings and property are not being accessed by the Reporting Individual. c. Class Relocation: A student may be relocated to another section of the same course. Students who are relocated to new class sections may not be reassigned to their original course section even if charges are not filed following an investigation and/or if a finding of “not responsible” is made. d. Campus Restriction: A student may be restricted from appearing in any or all of the buildings or grounds on campus if it is reasonably believed the that the student poses a threat to the health or safety of the campus community. Other interim restrictions may be imposed such as denial of access to specified campus services or programs. e. Interim Account Hold: An administrative or registration hold on a student’s account may be placed when a College investigation or student conduct case is pending, or when a student’s full compliance with disciplinary sanctions are pending. f. Cease & Desist Directive: a written directive to multiple parties prohibiting contact with each other, either directly or through a third party for a temporary duration of time, such as, until one party is no longer a student at the College. Students who have Interim Administrative Actions imposed onto them shall be able to appeal or request a modification to the parameters of the imposed actions. Students must submit, in writing, their specific request and provide any information, documentation or further evidence to support their request within three (3) calendar days from the date they are notified of the imposed actions. The request will be reviewed by the Dean of Student Life or designee; their decision will be final.
