Greetings, UW Students-
The Office of Community Standards and Student
Conduct is currently seeking new student members for the University
Disciplinary Committee (UDC). The University Disciplinary Committee is
comprised of students and faculty who hear disciplinary
cases on behalf of the University. Students who have allegedly violated
the Student Conduct Code can appear before the University Disciplinary
Committee or may choose to have an informal hearing with a Community
Standards and Student Conduct Hearing Officer. Additionally,
the UDC hears appeals of cases in which a student may have been found
responsible for a violation of the code but the student disagrees with
the initial finding or sanctions.
New student members will begin their one-year term
in January 2015 and will complete their term at the end of December
2015. In order to serve on the University Disciplinary Committee,
students must be enrolled full-time (either undergraduate
or graduate) and be in good academic standing. Additionally, students
must be able to commit to meeting as a committee 5-7 hours per month and
should be interested in gaining leadership skills through serving on
this University Wide Committee.
Students are selected at random from those students
who identify an interest in the University Disciplinary Committee and
then training is provided for those selected.
This year’s first required training for all new UDC members will
be held at the beginning of Winter quarter in January and details will
be provided to selected students.
If you are interested in submitting your name for random selection of students to serve on the UDC, please email me directly at
jadraper@uw.edu. In your email,
please include your name, major, college or school, and year in school.
This is the only information I need prior to randomly selecting
students.
The deadline to submit your name for random selection is 5pm on Monday, November 10th. Students will be notified via email whether or not they have been selected by Tuesday, November 18th.
