The Campus Judicial Board is an opportunity for members of the Illinois Institute of Technology staff/student/faculty to participate in the university’s judicial process. A Campus Judicial Board will generally include two faculty members, at least one of whom is not in the student’s major department, two students, one ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ staff members, and either one ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ staff member from the Office of Student Affairs, or a designee appointed by the Vice Provost for Student Affairs, who will serve as a chairperson of the Board and preside over the hearing but do so as a non-voting member, though they will be present during deliberations. Campus Judicial Board hearings will be used for cases where the alleged violation(s) could result in sanctions of suspension or expulsion or the allegations are deemed complex in nature.
