Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
(1) Complaints. Any
				member of the university community may submit a complaint that a student or
				recognized or registered student organization violated the standards of
				conduct. In matters that would constitute a violation of executive policy 15,
				the complaint must be initiated through CCR. In addition, CCS may initiate
				conduct proceedings when it receives any direct or indirect report of conduct
				that may violate the standards of conduct.
(2) Decision not to initiate the community
				standards process. Except as provided below, after reviewing the initial
				information, if the conduct officer determines that additional action from CCS
				is not warranted, the conduct officer dismisses the matter. If the conduct
				officer decides not to initiate a conduct proceeding, the conduct officer must
				notify the reporting party in writing of the decision, the reasons for the
				decision, and how to seek review of the decision. Conduct matters may be
				reopened if new relevant information becomes known. A conduct officer cannot
				dismiss a matter received from CCR where CCR completed a formal investigation
				implicating Title IX sexual harassment within the university's Title IX
				jurisdiction, as defined by university executive policy 15, regardless of the
				investigation's outcome. In such cases, the conduct officer must refer the
				matter to a conduct board hearing, which must be held within 60 days of the
				date the CCR formal investigation report was received, unless good cause exists
				to extend the date of the hearing or the matter is resolved through agreement
				or alternative dispute resolution.
(3) Agreement and alternative dispute
				resolution. A conduct officer may resolve a matter by agreement. Agreements may
				be reached directly or through alternative dispute resolution including, but
				not limited to, shuttle diplomacy or mediation. When resolution of a matter is
				reached by agreement or alternative dispute resolution, the agreement must be
				in writing and signed by the parties and the conduct officer. In the agreement,
				the parties must be advised in writing that:
(a) The disposition is final and they are
				waiving any right to a hearing on the matter, including any right to appeal;
				and
(b) If any party decides not to
				sign the agreement, and the matter proceeds to a hearing, neither the agreement
				nor a party's refusal to sign will be used against either party at the
				hearing.
Washington Administrative Code › Title 504 - Washington State University › Chapter 504-26 - Standards of conduct for students › Part IV - PROCEDURES › Section 504-26-402 - Conduct officer hearings (brief adjudications)

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
(1) The majority of
				student conduct matters are adjudicated through conduct officer hearings.
				However, conduct officer hearings are not used to adjudicate matters in which
				the respondent faces possible sanctions of suspension for more than 10
				instructional days, expulsion, or revocation of degree or when a recognized or
				registered student organization faces possible loss of recognition. In
				addition, conduct officer hearings generally are not used to adjudicate matters
				in which the respondent faces allegations of sexual misconduct, as that term is
				defined in WAC
				504-26-221.
(2) Notice of hearing. The conduct officer
				must provide the parties with written notice no later than seven calendar days
				prior to the conduct officer hearing. The notice must include:
(a) A brief description of the factual
				allegations or issues involved;
(b)
				The specific standard of conduct provision(s) the respondent is alleged to have
				violated;
(c) The time, date, and
				place of the hearing or process by which a respondent may schedule the
				hearing;
(d) Information regarding
				what to expect during the student conduct process and student rights including,
				but not limited to:
(i) A statement that the
				parties have the right to have an advisor present at the hearing;
(ii) A statement regarding the right not to
				self-incriminate in accordance with WAC
				504-26-045;
(iii) Information regarding the right to
				request recusal of a conduct officer under WAC
				504-26-125;
(e) Available resources, including how to
				access an information session and legal resources in the community;
(f) A statement that any request to modify
				the time or date of the conduct officer hearing should be addressed to
				CCS;
(g) A statement that indicates
				that respondents are presumed "not responsible" for the pending
				allegations;
(h) A statement that
				violations are determined by a preponderance of the evidence, meaning that it
				is more likely than not that the violation occurred.

Washington Administrative Code › Title 504 - Washington State University › Chapter 504-26 - Standards of conduct for students › Part IV - PROCEDURES › Section 504-26-409 - Emergency suspension

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
(1) Definition. An
				emergency suspension is a temporary exclusion of a student from all or
				specified portions of university premises, programs, or activities pending an
				investigation or student conduct proceeding relating to alleged standards of
				conduct violations. An emergency suspension may be assigned at any time prior
				to the issuance of the university's final order in the matter.
(2) Circumstances warranting emergency
				suspension.
(a) For matters which would not
				constitute Title IX sexual harassment within the university's Title IX
				jurisdiction, as defined by university executive policy 15, emergency
				suspension may be assigned only in situations when the dean of students or a
				vice chancellor for student affairs (in consultation with CCS), or their
				designee, has cause to believe that the student:
(i) Has violated any provision of the
				standards of conduct; and
(ii)
				Presents an immediate danger to the health, safety, or welfare of any part of
				the university community or the public at large. Conduct that creates an
				ongoing disruption of, or interference with, the operations of the university
				and that prevents other students, employees, or invitees from completing their
				duties or accessing their education or the educational environment, is conduct
				harmful to the welfare of members of the university community.
Washington Administrative Code › Title 504 - Washington State University › Chapter 504-26 - Standards of conduct for students › Part IV - PROCEDURES › Section 504-26-415 - Procedure for academic integrity violations

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
(1)
				Initial hearing.
(a) When a responsible
				instructor believes that an academic integrity violation has occurred, the
				instructor must assemble the evidence and, upon reasonable notice to the
				respondent of the date, time, and nature of the allegations, make reasonable
				attempts to meet with the respondent suspected of committing an academic
				integrity violation.
(b) If the
				respondent admits that they committed an academic integrity violation, the
				instructor assigns an outcome in keeping with published course policies and
				notifies CCS in writing, including the allegations, the respondent's admission,
				and the sanctions assigned.
(c) If
				the instructor is unable to meet with the respondent or if the respondent
				disputes the allegation(s) and/or the outcome proposed by the instructor, the
				instructor must make a determination as to whether the respondent did or did
				not commit an academic integrity violation based on a preponderance of the
				evidence standard, meaning that it is more likely than not that the violation
				occurred. If the instructor finds that the respondent was in violation, the
				instructor must provide the respondent and CCS with a written determination,
				the evidence relied upon, and the sanctions assigned.
(d) The respondent has 21 calendar days from
				the date of the decision letter to request review of the instructor's
				determination and/or sanction(s) assigned to the academic integrity hearing
				board.
Washington Administrative Code › Title 504 - Washington State University › Chapter 504-26 - Standards of conduct for students › Part IV - PROCEDURES › Section 504-26-420 - Appeals

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
(1) Time for
				appeals. Decisions made by a conduct officer or conduct board become final on
				the 21st calendar day after the date the decision is sent to the parties,
				unless an appeal is submitted within 20 calendar days of the date the decision
				is sent to the parties.
(2) Effect
				of appeal - Stay. Except in extraordinary circumstances, which must be
				explained in writing in the conduct officer's or conduct board's initial order,
				the implementation of an initial order assigning sanctions must be stayed
				pending the time for filing an appeal and the issuance of the university's
				final order.
(3) Appeals of conduct
				officer decisions. Upon receipt of a timely appeal, CCS provides the other
				parties, if applicable, with a copy of the appeal and an opportunity to respond
				within 10 calendar days. The appeals board then conducts a limited review as
				described below.
(a) Scope of review. Except
				as required to explain the basis of new information, appeal of a conduct
				officer decision is limited to a review of the record for one or more of the
				following purposes:
(i) To determine whether
				the conduct hearing was conducted fairly in light of the charges and
				information presented, and in conformity with prescribed procedures; deviations
				from designated procedures are not a basis for sustaining an appeal unless
				procedural error affected the outcome of the matter;
(ii) To determine whether the decision
				reached was based on substantial information, that is, whether there were facts
				in the case that, if believed by the fact finder, were sufficient to establish
				that a violation of the standards of conduct occurred;
(iii) To determine whether the sanction(s)
				assigned were appropriate for the violation of the standards of conduct that
				the respondent was found to have committed;
(iv) To consider new information, sufficient
				to alter a decision, or other relevant facts not brought out in the original
				conduct officer hearing, because such information and/or facts were not known
				to the person appealing at the time of the original conduct officer
				hearing;
(v) To consider whether or
				not the university had jurisdiction per WAC
				504-26-015 to address the
				situation through the community standards process. In cases implicating the
				university's executive policy 15, the appeals board must consult with the
				university's Title IX coordinator; or
(vi) To consider whether the Title IX
				coordinator, investigator(s), or decision maker(s) had a conflict of interest
				or bias for or against complainants or respondents generally or the individual
				complainant or respondent that affected the outcome of the
				matter.
Washington Administrative Code › Title 504 - Washington State University › Chapter 504-26 - Standards of conduct for students › Part IV - PROCEDURES › Section 504-26-425 - Sanctions

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
(1) Publication of
				guidelines for sanctioning. Sanctioning guidelines and other information
				regarding sanctioning must be published on the university website. Guidelines
				must explain in plain language the types of sanctions that a respondent may
				face for a particular violation and the factors that are used to determine the
				sanction(s) assigned for a particular violation.
(2) Factors for sanctioning must include, but
				not be limited to, the following:
(a) Conduct
				record. Any record of past violations of the standards of conduct, and the
				nature and severity of such past violations;
(b) Malicious intent. If a respondent is
				found to have intentionally selected a victim based upon the respondent's
				perception of the victim's race, color, religion, national or ethnic origin,
				age, sex/gender, marital status, status as an honorably discharged veteran or
				member of the military, sexual orientation, genetic information, gender
				identity/expression, or mental, physical, or sensory disability (including
				disability requiring the use of a trained service animal), such finding is
				considered an aggravating factor in determining a sanction for such
				conduct;
(c) Impact on victim
				and/or university community;
(d)
				Applicable local, state, or federal laws that define
				sanctioning.

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
CCS may elect not to initiate a conduct proceeding regarding
				  alcohol or other drug violations against a student or recognized or registered
				  student organization who, while in the course of helping another person seek
				  medical assistance, admits to the unlawful possession or use of alcohol or
				  drugs, provided that the possession was for personal consumption and the use
				  did not place the health or safety of any other person at risk. In addition,
				  CCS may elect not to initiate a conduct proceeding against a complainant who
				  admits to the possession or use of alcohol or drugs in connection with a report
				  under this policy.
Washington Administrative Code › Title 504 - Washington State University › Chapter 504-26 - Standards of conduct for students › Part V - ADMINISTRATION AND RECORDS › Section 504-26-515 - Periodic review and assessment

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
At the end of each academic year, CCS provides a report to
				  the dean of students which must include, at a minimum, a numerical breakdown of
				  the types of matters handled and the sanctions assigned. The dean of students
				  must make the report publicly available, provided all personally identifiable
				  or readily ascertainable student information is removed.
The standards of conduct and the student conduct system as a
				  whole are reviewed every three years under the direction of the dean of
				  students or designee. The student government council is asked to provide
				  recommendations and input on proposed changes. After completion of any
				  adjudication or other resolution of a student conduct matter, CCS must send a
				  survey to all parties requesting feedback on the process. Feedback results must
				  be reviewed, at a minimum, every three years in connection with the periodic
				  review and assessment.
Washington Administrative Code › Title 504 - Washington State University › Chapter 504-26 - Standards of conduct for students › Part V - ADMINISTRATION AND RECORDS › Section 504-26-520 - Conduct hold on student record

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
When a student leaves the university or completes course work
				  required for a degree after an incident occurs that could result in violations
				  of the standards of conduct, CCS may place a conduct hold on the student's
				  record. A conduct hold may also be placed on the student's account if the
				  student has failed to adequately complete sanctions by the proscribed timeline.
				  A conduct hold may restrict the student from adding or dropping classes,
				  requesting an official transcript, or receiving a degree from the university
				  until the hold is removed. CCS must advise the student of the hold and the
				  process for challenging the hold. A conduct hold under these circumstances is
				  not a sanction and does not imply or assume responsibility for a violation of
				  the standards of conduct.
Washington Administrative Code › Title 504 - Washington State University › Chapter 504-26 - Standards of conduct for students › Part V - ADMINISTRATION AND RECORDS › Section 504-26-525 - Good standing

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
The award of a degree and/or diploma is conditioned upon the
				  student's good standing in the university and satisfaction of all university
				  graduation requirements. "Good standing" means the student has resolved any
				  acts of academic or behavioral misconduct and complied with all sanctions
				  assigned as a result of the misconduct. The university has the sole authority
				  in determining whether to withhold the degree and/or diploma in cases where the
				  student is not in good standing. The university must deny the award of a degree
				  if the student is dismissed from the university based on their misconduct.
				  Neither diplomas nor transcripts are sent until students have resolved any
				  unpaid fees and resolved any acts of academic or behavioral misconduct and
				  complied with all sanctions assigned as a result of misconduct. (See also
				  academic regulation 45 in the university general catalog.)

(1) Removal of
				conduct record. A student may request removal of a single disciplinary
				violation from their record. Granting such a request is discretionary, and the
				student must make such a request in accordance with university policies and
				procedures.

				maintained in accordance with the university's records retention
				schedule.
(3) The conduct record is
				confidential and is released only as authorized under the Family Educational
				Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) (20 U.S.C. Sec. 1232g;  34 C.F.R. Part 99) and
				chapter 504-21 WAC, University policy on student education records. Situations
				where CCS may release records include, but are not limited to, releases:
(a) To another educational institution, upon
				request, where the student seeks or intends to enroll;
(b) To a parent or legal guardian, if a
				student under the age of 21 is found responsible for a drug or alcohol
				violation;
(c) To comply with
				legally served search warrants and subpoenas;
(d) To other university employees, if there
				is an educational need for the employee to know the information;

(1) Registration.
(a) The university registers a wide variety
			 of student organizations to facilitate the diverse interests of the student
			 body. Attendant to registration, organizations are granted certain privileges
			 and assume certain responsibilities as set forth in these rules. Registration
			 in no way implies that the university plans, organizes, or sanctions any

Washington State University is an educational institution
				provided and maintained by the people of the state of Washington in order to
				carry out its broad missions of teaching, research, and public service. A state
				agency is under no obligation to make its public facilities available to the
				community for private purposes, and the university generally reserves its
				facilities, buildings, and grounds for its mission-related activities,
				including: Instruction, research, public assembly, student activities, and
				recreational activities related to education. However, the university makes
				facilities available for a variety of uses which are of benefit to the general
				public under the conditions set forth in these regulations if such general uses
				substantially relate to, and do not interfere with, university missions.
The purpose of these regulations is to establish procedures and
				reasonable controls for the use of university facilities by individuals and
				entities other than the university itself, including university employees,
				students, and registered student organizations, as well as individuals and
				groups that are not related to or affiliated with the university.
In reviewing conflicting requests to use university facilities,
				primary consideration is given to activities specifically related to the
				university's mission. Additionally, no use will be allowed that may interfere
				with, or operate to the detriment of, the university's own teaching or public
				service programs. Additionally, reasonable conditions may be imposed to
				regulate the timeliness of requests, to determine the appropriateness of space
				assigned, time of use, and to ensure the proper maintenance of the
				facilities.
