What is Judicial Affairs?:
The Office of Judicial Affairs
is located on the second floor of Wood Support Services on the Eastern
Connecticut State University campus. It is a part of the Division of
Student Affairs and is administered by the University Judicial Officer
Kimberly Armstrong Silcox, J.D. The purpose and function of the Office
of Judicial Affairs is different from the criminal justice process.
By nature Judicial Affairs is
both instructional and educational in design while providing protection to the
academic community in a collegiate setting. It provides students with
core values and lessons on how to act as a responsible adult in a community
based living-learning environment. Through this process students are
encouraged to take responsibility for their actions and realize that the
University by design is its own community.

Purpose:
Eastern Connecticut State
University and the C.S.U. system have developed certain institutional values
and expectations. All members of the University are expected to conduct
themselves in a manner consistent with these values and expectations, and to
comply with rules and policies in place while the individual is a member of
the University community.
Disciplinary procedures have
been established to ensure fair and consistent enforcement of the student code
outlines in the Student Rights and
Responsibilities
section of the Student Handbook. These procedures are designed to
provide impartial consideration of the facts and circumstances surrounding an
alleged violation of the code, and to provide sanctions consistent with the
severity of the violation.
All members of the community
are expected to be familiar with the Connecticut State University Guidelines
for Student Rights and Responsibilities
and Judicial Procedures contained in the
Student Handbook.
