Student Judiciary Bylaws
Purpose of The Student Judiciary
The purpose of the Student Judiciary shall always be to serve the
best interests of the collective entity of Alpena Community College
by adjudicating promptly and equitably on all matters brought before
it. The unity and all matters presented to the Judiciary shall be
acted upon with expedience and equity. Whether acting upon the case
of an individual or a group, the court shall always determine a
course of action consistent with the healthy operation of the entire
College body and consideration shall be given the harmonious integration
of that individual or group into the collective College body. The
Student Judiciary is organized to provide a means for students to
express themselves so as to ensure appropriate due process, therefore
providing a better environment for the entire Alpena Community College
community.
Due process at Alpena Community College means that a student is
assured that his/her rights as a citizen and student will be protected.
Further, and specifically, a student has the right:
- to be present at the hearing if desired;
- to have a chosen advisor or counselor appear with the student
for advice during, before, and after the hearing;
- to hear or examine evidence presented to the Board and to present
evidence by witnesses or affidavit of any defense the student
desires;
- to be informed in writing of the charge and subsequently of
the findings of the Student Judiciary and any disciplinary action
it recommends;
- to appeal the decision of the Student Judiciary as herein provided
for;
- to waive the right of a formal hearing before the Student Judiciary
and to have the case heard by the Dean of Student Affairs.
