Except as specifically authorized under applicable law, both the content and the outcome of a hearing shall be considered private and no member of the conduct administration shall discuss a student’s role in an incident except with other administrators involved in the conduct or sanctioning process or who have a need to know.

The right of the University community to have knowledge of the work of the conduct administration shall be met through the release of summary outcomes of cases which do not mention the names of individuals.

In certain cases, the public nature of the violation of regulations or the student’s own public admission of responsibility may bring attention to a case, but this does not alter the privacy of the conduct proceedings.
