Appeal Step Three
If the grievant is not satisfied with the Vice President’s determination, the grievant may appeal to the President. The appeal must be in writing, must provide a written summary of the specific facts and must contain any other documentation pertinent to the matter. The President or the President’s designee will conduct an “on the record” review and conduct any further investigation that is necessary to ascertain the facts needed to make a determination. The President or the President’s designee may, at their discretion, establish a committee to further investigate the matter and make a recommendation to the President or the President’s designee.
At the conclusion of the investigation and not later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of the student’s appeal, the President or the President’s designee shall provide a written decision to the student.
The President’s or the President’s designee’s decision shall be final.
