Draft Expulsion Clemency Policy: Vice President for Student Affairs Gregory Blimling summarized an addendum to the University Code of Student Conduct, which he had sent to the Executive Committee with an explanatory cover email. Dr. Blimling said that the policy would be going to the Board of Governors for action in October, and that the University Senate did not need to approve it. He explained the process by which a committee assigned to the task had developed the clemency policy. Blimling said the item had been brought to the Executive Committee as an information item, and asked if anyone had suggestions for areas of consideration not previously mentioned. He then responded to questions about the policy relative to decisionmaking authorities, similar policies at other institutions, the need for the policy, the number of requests for clemency from expelled students, and specifics of readmission and admission on disciplinary probation. Senator Peter Gillett suggested changing "mitigating circumstances" to "extenuating circumstances," a suggestion with which Blimling agreed. There was also brief discussion of clemency officers, the academic integrity policy, and the process by which changes to these policies are enacted.
