Legal Question
Can a college be held responsible for reprimanding a student in a situation that occurred outside the college District and campus police stated that no crime was committed?
Quick note: Harassment report was filed on student to campus police by a faculty member of the school. No crime was noted and the report sent to student affairs to check for Standards of Conduct violations. None were filed, because none were violated, There's a disciplinary action file on this student for this event and has been reprimanded. The reprimand is minor, but it still tarnishes an otherwise clean academic record without this student committing a crime or violating Standards of Conduct.
