Responding to a Notice of Alleged Violation

Notice of Alleged Violation Letters are based on allegations of student misconduct submitted to the Judicial Affairs office. It is important for students to understand that receiving a notice letter does not equal immediate responsibility (or guilt) of misconduct.

Just how important is it for a student to respond to an alleged violation letter?
EXTREMELY, because the Judicial Affairs official needs to hear and examine both sides of the allegation. Once an allegation is submitted and there is sufficient evidence to support an official charge of student misconduct, a decision must be made with or without the accused student's input. By choosing NOT to respond, the right to a preliminary conduct hearing and/or a university hearing is automatically waived.

RESPONDING to an alleged violation letter is very simple. Call the Judicial Affairs office 254-710-1715 by the deadline stated in the letter and schedule an appointment. During your meeting, relax and most importantly, tell the truth. At the conclusion of your preliminary conduct hearing, you will have the opportunity to admit or deny the alleged violation stated in your letter.
