The chair of each Judicial Board (Honor Board, Civitas Council, Appeals Board), and the Advisor to these Boards, has in their discretion the authority to defer a student case for administrative action by the Dean of Students or their designee. The Dean of Students or their designee may convene members of the Honor Board, Civitas Council, Appeals Board and/or the Student Government Executive Committee to adjudicate a case. Reasons for deferring a student case may include but are not limited to, a conflict of interest with the Board, extenuating and/or sensitive circumstances surrounding the case, scheduling conflicts which prevent a timely trial, university exams and/or official University breaks.
