  • To be informed of the nature of the charges brought against the student.
  • To present testimony, evidence, witness, or other material relevant to the charges.
  • To be represented by an advisor, coach, faculty member, at any time during the disciplinary process.
  • To appeal their case to the Dean of Students.
  • To initiate the Student Grievance Procedure.

Student Conduct and Responsibilities

CCC is committed to providing a learning environment which will allow each student the ability to focus on reaching his/her education objectives. As such, student conduct rules are structured to support behavior which eliminates barriers so that a safe, non-disruptive and harassment free climate exist where the “rights of an individual” are prevalent for students, staff and guest. The “rights of an individual” demand that honesty, integrity, responsibility and respect for persons and property are inherent in a student’s quest for self-development. Physical abuse, verbal abuse, threats, intimidation, harassment, or coercion will not be tolerated, nor will conduct which is disorderly, lewd or indecent. Students are expected to treat others in the same manner in which they would like to be treated.
