Procedures and Policies
91制片厂 is committed to providing a friendly environment free of all forms of harassment, exploitation, fear, and coercion to its students, faculty, and staff. The University recognizes the responsibility to establish procedures for addressing student complaints about faculty conduct that is not protected by academic freedom and not addressed in other procedures. Students can take these steps to file a formal complaint.
The purpose of the grade appeal procedure is to serve the needs of graduate and undergraduate students who believe that they were unjustly awarded a grade by a faculty member through prejudice or caprice. The basis for a grade appeal is the student's charge that the grade was awarded through prejudice or caprice. The burden of proof rests with the student. Students must initiate the appeal within the same time limitations that exist for removing a grade of "I" from a record. The policy applies to final grades in credit courses and does not apply to graduate and undergraduate examinations that are administered as part of the degree progression and certification processes.
91制片厂 will promptly refund tuition and/or cancel a financial charge from a student account provided the student meets the requirements of the University's policy on Tuition Appeals and submits supporting documentation on official letterhead.
At 91制片厂, student members of the community are expected to uphold and abide by standards of conduct that form the basis of the Code of Student Conduct. These standards are embodied within a set of core values that include integrity, fairness, respect, community, and responsibility. All students are expected to assume responsibility for their conduct, and to assume reasonable responsibility for the behavior of others. The student conduct process exists to protect the interests of the community, and to educate and respond to those students whose behavior is not in accordance with our standards.
