Page 50 of 92 d. Community involvement/service. 5. Upon receipt of the request, it will first be reviewed by the director of SCCE (or their designee) to determine whether or not the student meets criteria for review. If the director of SCCE (or their designee) agrees that the student’s request meets any/all of the above-mentioned criteria, the student generally will be contacted within 15 University business days to schedule a “disciplinary sanction review meeting” with the director of SCCE (or their designee). 6. At this meeting, the student will have the opportunity to further discuss with the director of SCCE (or their designee) why their disciplinary probation and/or suspension status should be modified or terminated. Modifications may not include new or increased sanctions. 7. After the meeting, the director of SCCE (or their designee) will provide a recommendation and rationale for a decision to the Associate Vice President of Student Success for review and approval or denial. 8. Upon approval or denial of the recommendation, the Associate Vice President of Student Success will provide notice of the outcome to the student in writing within 10 University business days. The decision shall include a written statement that explains the basis for the decision. 9. There is no appeal process for Disciplinary Sanction Review. 10. Deadlines for each step in the process outlined above may be revised should extenuating circumstances justify such a change. ARTICLE 10. ACADEMIC CONDUCT PROCEEDINGS It is the policy of TAMIU that all faculty, administrators, staff, and students conduct themselves in a manner that is consistent with the values, integrity, reputation, and public trust of this University. The TAMIU Honor Code provides employees and students notice of academic violation. It is the responsibility of TAMIU faculty, staff, administration, and students to be familiar with the information presented in the TAMIU Honor Code and to observe all provisions and procedures relating to the Code. Ignorance of this Code is not a defense to misconduct violations. Section 10.01 Honor Council Mission Statement It is the mission of the TAMIU Honor Council to serve as a centralized system established to respond fairly to academic violations of the TAMIU Honor Code.
