Campus Judicial Board Report BY DOUG NEILL This year it is my duty to work with the Campus Judicial Board as its advisor. A part of my job is to advise the students of their rights when they come into contact with the judicial system. When a student is charged with a violation, he/she is presented with a charge sheet. On this piece of paper, you will read the official charge that has allegedly been com mitted. When the chairperson of the Judicial Board (Clark Wheeler) gives you this sum mons, you are informed of the time, date, and where abouts of the hearing. You will then be asked to contact me so that you can be informed of your rights. When the time comes for a hearing, usually within a week of the alleged violation, all individuals who are related to the specific case will be asked to appear at the trial. During the trial, an ex planation of the two sides is given, and questioning of the witnesses, complaintants, and defendants follows. The Board then determines guilt or innocence. If guilty, the student is asked if he/she can add anything that will affect sentencing. The Board then deliberates further and decides upon a sentence. When a stu dent is found guilty, a report of the case will be put in his/her personal file until grad uation, at which time it will be removed. For further information, please refer to the Guilford College Handbook. The following is a list of the Judicial cases which took place during last semester: • The first case involved an Academic Honor violation where two individuals were found guilty of plagiarism.
