Appeals Procedure
A student who wishes to appeal a disciplinary decision by the Student Disciplinary Officer or his/her designee must file a written notice of appeal through the President’s Office for review by the Judicial Body within five business days of notification of the decision.
The student will then have the right to appear in a hearing before a Judicial Body assigned by the President or his/her designee within 10 business days to present evidence and/or testimony. The student has the right to be assisted by any single advisor he/she chooses at his/her own expense. The student is responsible for presenting his/her own case; and therefore, advisors are not permitted to speak or to participate directly in any hearing before a Judicial Body. The Judicial Body may consist of two faculty members, one staff member, and two students. There shall be a single verbatim record, such as a tape recording of all hearings before the Judicial Body. The record shall be the property of Savannah Technical College. The standard of proof in all hearings shall be a preponderance of the evidence. The Chairperson of the Judicial Body shall notify the President and the Student Disciplinary Officer in writing of the Judicial Body’s decision. The Savannah Technical College President or his/her designee will notify the student in writing of the Judicial Body’s decision and the opportunity to appeal directly to the President.
The student shall have 5 business days after receiving written notification of the Judicial Body’s decision from the President or his/her designee to request in writing an appeal with the Appellate Board. The student shall ensure that all relevant information is included with this request.
The Appellate Board review shall be in writing and shall only consider evidence currently in the record, new facts not brought up in earlier stages of the appeal shall not be considered. The Appellate Board shall deliver its decision to the student within 10 business days. The decision of the Appellate Board shall be final and binding.
