STUDENT COMPLAINT AGAINST ANOTHER STUDENT

All Kingsborough students are expected to act professionally, respect each other, staff, faculty and the campus. Students are responsible to adhere to and comply with all Kingsborough Community College policies including but not limited to the student code of conduct and CUNY's Henderson Rules to Maintain Public Order. If a student feels that his/her learning environment has been compromised by another student, he/she has the right to file a Student Complaint with the Office of the Vice President of Student Affairs (A216).

The grievance process against another student is as follows:

   1. This form will detail the grievance as well as all parties involved, including the student(s) the grievance is against as well as any witness to the grievance, if any.

2. Fact-Finding Process
   1. A member of the Office of the Vice President will initiate a fact-finding process, conducting interviews of other students involved or any witnesses

   3. All students interviewed will be asked to fill out a Statement Form detailing their account of the grievance
3. Decision
