Conduct and Appellate Board Interest Form

If you are interested in serving on the conduct board, appellate board or both, please fill out the information below.

The Student Conduct Office responds to reported violations of the BSU Student Code of Conduct and works to ensure that the campus environment is conducive to teaching and learning by protecting the rights of all students and assisting them to accept their responsibilities. 

Conduct Board members are part of the Office of Student Conduct’s response to reported violations of the Code of Conduct. The Conduct Board Hearings are formal proceedings where a board of students, faculty and/or administrative staff meets with relevant parties, to review the details of the alleged violation and determine whether or not a violation of the Student Code of Conduct has occurred.  If the board finds that a student was in violation of the Student Code of Conduct the board makes a sanction recommendation to the Director of Student Conduct or designee. 

The Appellate Board is made up of students, faculty and/or administrative staff who review the written appeal of students found responsible for Code of Conduct violations and believe that there are grounds to appeal the decision, according to policy. The board reviews the appeal, without knowing the names of the individuals involved, and determine whether there are grounds for an appeal. If so, they make a recommendation to the Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs or designee. In cases involving University Expulsion the Vice President of Student Affairs, or designee, receives the board’s recommendation.  

The commitment to serve on the boards includes attending a 3 hour training session and being available to serve on hearing boards and attend periodic practice sessions throughout the year as your schedule permits.
