Records
In situations involving both a Respondent student(s) (or group or organization) and when a student claims to be the victim of another student’s or student organization's conduct, the incident record is considered an education record of each party. This provision allows for alleged victims/complainants to participate in the hearing process and be informed of the determination and sanctions imposed, if any. If the alleged victim is deceased as a result of the conduct, the next of kin of such victim may be treated as the alleged victim with regard to requests for information. The victim may ask to be informed (to the extent permitted by law) of the impending return of the Respondent student to campus, if the Respondent met all conditions of the suspension while the victim remains a student.
