			 regional campus as the applicable student complaint policy and procedure for
			 the unit.

			 complaint (i.e., where a complaint is filed and which academic unit or regional
			 campus controls the complaint process) is determined first by the academic unit
			 or campus scheduling the course offering. Academic complaints concerning
			 courses scheduled by an academic unit will be initiated with the academic unit
			 offering the course. Academic complaints concerning courses scheduled by a
			 regional campus will be initiated with the regional campus offering the course.

			 with other academic units, an academic complaint will be initiated with the
			 academic unit of the instructor. In the case of a course scheduled by a
			 regional campus that is cross-listed with another campus, an academic complaint
			 will be initiated with the primary campus of the instructor of
			 record.
(4)
									It is understood that some issues student academic
			 complaints may involve one or more policies which, because of either the nature
			 of the academic complaint or the status of the complainant, may be related to
			 university offices with separate responsibilities for such policies. An
			 allegation of discrimination or sexual harassment should be referred to the
			 office of compliance, equal opportunity, and affirmative action. Appeals of
			 sanctions applied for cheating or plagiarism should be addressed under rule
			 3342-3-01.8 of the Administrative Code. Nonacademic student complaints should
			 be addressed under rule 3342-4-02.102 of the Administrative
			 Code.
