Policy

Disciplinary Response Appeals

  • If the Director of Athletics determines that it is necessary to impose a disciplinary response for violation of an athletic regulation, he/she shall notify, in writing, the student‐athlete and appropriate University officials.

  • A student‐athlete may appeal any disciplinary response that includes suspension or dismissal. The appeal must be made in writing within 48 hours of notice of the discipline response to the Director of Athletics. Appeals will be considered by the Athletic Department Appeals Committee. The student may appeal the decision of the Athletic Department Appeals committee to the Dean of Students. A final appeal may be made to the Provost/Vice President of Academic Affairs within seven days of the decision of the Faculty Athletic Representative.

  • The Athletic Department reserves the right to discipline student‐athletes outside the traditional academic calendar (e.g., during breaks from school).
