All parties may request specific information from the other parties if the Hearing Board deems that information relevant. The Hearing Board will treat as confidential all information received in the complaint process. It expects the parties will be discreet and show respect for all. The Hearing Board must reach its decision strictly on the evidence it receives in the hearing. The Hearing Board makes its written recommendation, with appropriate reasons stated, to the Chancellor to whom the respondent reports, within 10 days after the hearing's termination.
All parties receive copies of the recommendation at that time.
When the case results in a written reprimand or a more severe sanction, the Chancellor will ensure that a copy of the sanction is placed in the appropriate personnel or student file. No one at the university may reprimand or discriminate against a person for having initiated in good faith an inquiry or complaint.
