Possible Sanctions and Additional Remedies

A student who has been found to have violated the Student Code of Conduct with regard to matters involving discrimination, discriminatory harassment, gender-based harassment, domestic violence, dating violence, stalking and/or retaliation may be subject to sanctions including suspension or expulsion.

In general, the sanction typically imposed upon students for rape or non-consensual sexual intercourse is expulsion. The sanction typically imposed upon students for non-consensual sexual contact, sexual exploitation, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking is suspension or expulsion. All student sanctions, however, are determined on a case-by-case basis in consideration of: the seriousness of the violation; sanctions typically imposed for similar violations; prior disciplinary history; and any other circumstances indicating that the sanction should be more or less severe.
