The following letter was sent to three students. January 10, 2005
Dear **********,
The purpose of this letter is to inform you of the results of your Judicial Board hearing on January 9, 2005. The Judicial Board has unanimously found you in violation of the consideration hours policy. You were found not in violation of the alcohol policy.
The board has decided on the following sanctions:
Residential warning to be in effect for the remainder of the 2004-2005 academic year. This letter constitutes notification that further violation of the Social Code may result in expulsion from the residence in which you are living.
The Board is concerned about the fact that noise from your room has been a recurring problem. The Board expects that you will be responsible for your behavior and the behavior of your guests and that you will respect your residential community.
If you wish to appeal this decision you must inform the President, in writing, within three days of receiving this letter.
The members of the Board hope you understand that our responsibility is to hear all formal complaints, decide if a violation has been committed and apply a sanction when warranted. We hope you understand that you need to respect the rights of others if we are to maintain a satisfactory living and learning environment at Lawrence. The college community must insist upon the cooperation and responsible judgment of all students.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the hearing or the appeals process, please contact me or the Dean of Students, Nancy Truesdell.
Sincerely,
Ben Weston
Chair, Judicial Board
