If the recommendations of the Review Committee members are unanimous and in agreement with the Disciplinary Administrator's recommendation then that shall constitute the action of the Review Committee. If any Review Committee members disagree with any other member or with the Disciplinary Administrator, then that complaint shall be resolved by a majority vote of the Review Committee at the next Review Committee meeting. 5.
