• 2. Instructor reports the violation and makes any recommendations for sanctions
• 3. Student meets with Student Attorney General to discuss alleged violation and rights of the student
• 4. If charged, the student is assigned a student counsel to assist in presenting the case
• 5. Hearing is held before student Honor Court. If guilty, the Court determines an appropriate sanction
• 6. Student may appeal on various grounds. If no appeal or if appeal is unsuccessful, sanction goes into effect
