Any member of the University community (“complainant”) may file a complaint against a student(s) or student organization (“respondent”) alleging violation of the Community Standards. An incident report completed by a Public Safety or Residence Life staff member or a written complaint prepared by any other member of the University community and directed to the Senior Community Standards Officer [Nancy Komada, Ph.D.] begins the process. In the case when the University initiates an incident report, it becomes the complainant. A complaint shall be submitted as soon as possible after the event takes place, preferably within one week; however, the timeliness of a complaint shall be determined by the Vice President for Student Life based on the fact and circumstances presented.
