HSMB Decision #1

On February 28, 2017, the Harassment and Sexual Misconduct Board (HSMB) met to consider an allegation against an undergraduate student of Non-consensual Sexual Penetration.

By unanimous vote (3-0), the Board found the evidence insufficient to show that there was a policy violation.



HSMB Decision #2

On April 25, 2017, the HSMB met to consider an allegation of nonconsensual sexual penetration. The panel found the Respondent responsible of violating University Policy.

  • Suspension for Fall Term 2017, with conditions to apply for reinstatement
  • Loss of Privileges
  • On Campus Residential Relocation
  • Probation through Academic Year 2017-2018



HSMB Decision #3

On June 29, 2017, the HSMB met to consider an allegation of nonconsensual sexual penetration, sexual exploitation, and retaliation. The panel found the evidence insufficient to show there was a policy violation.
