Procedures for Handling Student Disciplinary Cases

A student who violates any part of the Code is said to have committed a breach of conduct.

A student who has been accused of committing a breach of the Conduct Code under any of the rules of La Xenia and is found guilty can be subjected to the imposition of any one or a combination of two or more of the following penalties:

exclusion from any specified part or parts of the institution

suspension from membership of the institution for a fixed period

payment of compensation or damages for any damage to property and institution facilities or any third-party claimant

nullification of examination results or any part of the examination results

Every report of wrongdoing shall be investigated by the Investigation Committee and the Investigation Committee shall decide whether the alleged offense is serious, minor or there is no case to answer.

Serious offenses include academic dishonesty, fraud, plagiarism, any activity that adversely affects the good name of La Xenia and involvement in criminal activities.

If the Investigation Committee finds that a student has committed an offense, it shall inform the offense of the offense of which he/she is accused and require the student to provide a written explanation within a reasonable period of time.

If the student pleads not guilty and his/her explanation is accepted, or the student admits his/her guilt, the Investigation Committee shall then take the appropriate action.

If the student pleads not guilty and his/her explanation is not being accepted by the Investigation Committee, the student shall be informed of his/her offense and required to appear before the Disciplinary Committee within a period not less than 14 days from the date of notification.

A student who does not make the explanation statement or does not pay the fine imposed or fails to appear before the Disciplinary Committee shall be suspended until he/she provides an explanation or pays the fine imposed or agrees to appear before the Disciplinary Committee.

If the student pleads not guilty and the Disciplinary Committee finds that there is a case to answer, the student shall be asked to provide evidence, the student may call witnesses or present document(s) or other materials in his/her defense. The Disciplinary Committee can question the student or any of the witnesses and examine any document(s) or materials and the student may cross-examine any of the witnesses.
