The vice-president shall give the student an opportunity to respond to the allegations before a disciplinary decision is made.(2) After considering the information that has been obtained through investigation and/or from the student, the vice-president may take any of the following actions: (a) Terminate the proceeding, exonerating the student;(b) Give any appropriate counseling or advice and then terminate the proceeding;(c) Impose disciplinary sanction(s), subject to any right of appeal as described herein; or(d) Refer the matter to the student conduct committee for such action as it deems appropriate. Such referral shall be in writing, to the attention of the committee chair, with a copy served on the student.(3) A "respondent" as referred to hereinafter is a student upon whom a disciplinary sanction has been imposed or whose case has been referred to the student conduct committee.Wash.
