Code of Conduct
Sanctions for Violations
The College seeks to ensure fair treatment of students subject to disciplinary
sanction(s). Any sanction(s) imposed by the College shall be confirmed in
writing. Sanctions for violations of the Student Code of Conduct include:
College Warning
College Warning is official notice to a student that certain
conduct is in violation of the Student Code of Conduct and that the continuation
of such conduct or action(s) will result in further disciplinary sanctions.
Disciplinary Probation
The student is placed on Disciplinary Probation for
one or more semesters (usually for a period not longer than one calendar
year). This disciplinary action is a warning that any further misconduct will
subject the student to more severe disciplinary action, which may include
termination from the College. This probation may include provisions
including, but not limited to, restriction or loss of certain specified
privileges, which may include the use of specific areas and/or activities. It
may also limit the amount of time the student is permitted on campus.
Withdrawal Agreement
In certain cases where a student’s behavior and
continued enrollment may adversely affect his/her well being or the College,
the Director of Student Development, or designee, and the student may
agree to discontinue his/her attendance at WCTC for a specified amount of time and agree to conditions for re-admittance to the College. In such
instances, the Director of Student Development, or designee, and the student
will sign a written Withdrawal Agreement.
Administrative Withdrawal
In certain cases where a student’s behavior
and continued enrollment may adversely affect his/her well being or the
College, the Director of Student Development, or designee, will discontinue
his/her attendance at WCTC for a specified amount of time. Conditions will
be established for re-admittance to the College.
Disciplinary Suspension
Disciplinary Suspension means the student has
temporary loss of student status for a specified length of time, while an
investigation is conducted. The student may not attend classes and may not
come on College property during the time specified as suspension. This
sanction may be used in cases when there is reasonable cause to believe that
continued presence of the accused student on campus might present an
immediate and definite danger to himself/ herself or other members of the
College community, or threatens disruption of College operations or activities.
Expulsion
Expulsion is an act of terminating a student’s enrollment at
WCTC for a semester or more. A student who has been expelled may no
longer participate in any WCTC activity or be on WCTC property. Expelled
students will receive the Administrative Withdrawal (AW) grade for all
credit courses. The AW grade is included in hours attempted. Students will
receive a No Grade (NG) grade for all non-credit courses. Refunds are
issued at the discretion of the college.
Restitution
In addition to other penalties a student may be ordered to
reimburse the College for any financial loss.
Other
Other types of discipline that are appropriate in remedying the
student's misbehavior may be levied.
Any person not currently a student is subject to the College’s
Visitor Policy. Copies are posted at college entrances and available
by calling 262.691.5055.
Any sanction imposed under the conduct
violations shall be in effect at all campuses/sites or functions
sponsored by or under the supervision of WCTC.
The Director of
Student Development, or designee, may impose discipline for violations
of the WCTC rules of the Student Code of Conduct or other College
policies, rules or regulations. The Director of Student Development,
or designee, may make such decision whether or not proceedings
are or have been pending in the courts involving the same act.
