(AR 2.3.5; Appendix S‐6) 2.3.12 Non‐Instructional Complaint Resolution Process A student who feels that he or she has been treated unfairly or unjustly by any employee with regard to a non‐ instructional process such as a student or administrative services has the right to file a formal and written complaint according to the approved procedures. Steps for students to follow: 1. Discuss the issue with the employee involved. The student should request this conference within fifteen (15) working days from the time the student knew or reasonably should have known about the unfair or unjust treatment. 2. If, within ten (10) working days of the request for the conference with the employee, the problem is not resolved or the employee has been unable to meet with the student, the student may continue the process by filing a written complaint with the appropriate supervisor of the employee where authority exists to take corrective action. This written complaint must be filed within ten (10) working days following the previous deadline. The written complaint will be given to the employee five (5) working days before any official meetings are convened. 3. Upon receipt of a written complaint, the appropriate supervisor will work with the parties in an attempt to resolve the conflict. Every attempt will be made to maintain confidentiality during this process. An employee will not be required to respond to a complaint which is not in writing and which, when appropriate, does not have specific documentation including dates, times, actions, supporting documents, etc. The written complaint will be made available to the employee. 4. If the complaint is not resolved at this level within ten (10) working days, the student should forward to the or appropriate college/center dean and/or associate dean, a copy of the original written complaint with an explanation regarding action taken at each prior level. The dean and/or associate dean will meet with the student, the employee, and the relevant supervisor and attempt to resolve the issues. [Estrella Mountain Community College | 2012-2013 Catalog] [301]

The college president or designee will issue a final written determination in the complaint process. DISCIPLINARY STANDARDS 2.5.1 Disciplinary Standards 1. Disciplinary Probation and Suspension According to the laws of the State of Arizona, jurisdiction and control over the Maricopa Community Colleges are vested in the District Governing Board. The Governing Board and its agents‐the chancellor, administration and faculty‐are granted broad legal authority to regulate student life subject to basic standards of reasonableness. In developing responsible student conduct, the Maricopa Community Colleges prefer mediation, guidance, admonition and example. However, when these means fail to resolve problems of student conduct and responsibility, appropriate disciplinary procedures will be followed. Misconduct for which students are subject to disciplinary action falls into the general areas of: A. Cheating on an examination, assessment tests, laboratory work, written work (plagiarism), falsifying, forging or altering college records B. Actions or verbal statements which threaten the personal safety of any faculty, staff, students, or others lawfully assembled on the campus, or any conduct which is harmful, obstructive, disruptive to, or interferes with the educational process or institutional functions C. Violation of Arizona statutes, and/or college regulations and policies D. Use of college computer resources such as the Internet in violation of Technology Resource Standards (AR 4.4) which may result in notification of law enforcement authorities 2. Disciplinary Removal from Class A faculty member may remove a student from class meetings for disciplinary reasons. If an instructor removes a student for more than one class period, the faculty member shall notify the department/division chair and the appropriate vice president or designee in writing of the problem, action taken by the faculty member, and the faculty member's recommendation. If a resolution of the problem is not reached between the faculty member and the student, the student may be removed permanently pursuant to due process procedures. 2.5.2 Student Conduct Code The purpose of this Code is to help ensure a healthy, comfortable and educationally productive environment for students, employees and visitors. Article I: Definitions The following are definitions of terms or phrases contained within this Code: 1. "Accused student" means any student accused of violating this Student Conduct Code. 2.
