Grievance Meetings

At each level of the grievance process, the involved student will meet with a College associate. No attorneys or other professional advisors/counselors may attend these meetings; however, the College associate may have a silent observer present at the meeting and the student may have a peer observer present at the meeting. The student must notify the College associate if a peer observer will be present and the identity of that peer observer at least one (1) business day prior to the meeting, or the peer observer may not attend the meeting. The peer observer will not provide any testimony. No audio taping or other recording will be permitted during these meetings, but both parties are free to make notes as needed. If a student is unable to travel to campus to meet, meetings may be facilitated by conferencing technology.
