Confidentiality

Except as specifically authorized under applicable law, both the content and the outcome of a hearing shall be considered confidential and no member of the Board shall discuss a student’s role in an incident except with other members of the Board.

The right of the University community to knowledge of the work of the Board shall be met through the releases 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 confidentiality of the conduct proceedings.
