Student Conduct & Regulations 66|Page www.kutztown.edu/thekey g. Housing Suspension: A student may be excluded from campus housing for a specified period of time if held responsible through the student conduct process for a major violation of the Student Code of Conduct, for repeated infractions or a serious breach of residence hall regulations. h. Deferred Suspension: Deferred Suspension is imposed only in serious cases or in response to progressive discipline stipulating that a student, in lieu of University suspension, is being allowed to remain at the University provided that the student adheres to certain conditions. A student on Deferred Suspension is denied the privilege to represent the University in any organized capacity including intercollegiate varsity, non-varsity, or club events or to hold office in any Student Organization. Any subsequent violations will likely result in the immediate suspension or dismissal of the student from the university. Students on Deferred Suspension are not in good disciplinary standing. i. Suspension: A recommendation approved by the Dean of Students for the exclusion of a student from the University for a specific period of time not to exceed four (4) years. During the period of suspension, the student: is ineligible to enroll or participate in any academic courses or university programs and activities; must adhere to all other terms and conditions of their official sanctions; must not be involved in further student conduct violations during their period of suspension and is required to meet with the Dean of Students or designee and complete the Post Suspension Reentry Form PRIOR to reenrolling at Kutztown University. In addition, the University may restrict or place limitations on a suspended student’s access to campus facilities during this period of time as specified as part of their official sanction. Suspended students are not in good disciplinary standing. Unless a student officially withdraws from the university, the student’s relationship with the university is maintained therefore any alleged disciplinary infraction that occurs while a student is serving a suspension will be adjudicated in accordance with university policy. Violating conditions of suspension subjects the student to additional sanctions including, but not limited to, an extension of suspension and/or dismissal from the university. j. Dismissal: A recommendation approved by the Dean of Students for the permanent separation of the student from the University. Under this status, the relationship between the student and the University is terminated and the individual is no longer considered a student. A dismissed student is excluded from University property for a minimum period of four (4) years. Students on Dismissal are not in good disciplinary standing. B.
