The UJC hears most cases of alleged misconduct other than those involving lying, cheating or stealing which fall under the jurisdiction of the Honor System. Misconduct is defined as any violation of the Standards of Conduct. The Standards of Conduct, adopted by the Board of Visitors in 1970, empower the Judiciary Committee with jurisdiction over violations of University policy. The UJC decides the question of guilt and, if necessary, the degree of sanction. For a complete list of the Standards of Conduct, as well as the academic and nonacademic policies governing students at the University, please refer to the UJC web site or the Undergraduate or Graduate Record at the University Registrar’s web site . Any person, within or outside the University community, who believes that a University student or student group has either infringed upon that person's individual rights or has violated the Standards of Conduct should contact the UJC. Should a reported violation proceed to a full investigation and trial, the committee will convene to decide the guilt or innocence of the accused and, if guilty, will render an appropriate sanction. Faculty members who suspect that an incident of hazing has occurred should report the incident directly to the Office of the Dean of Students at (434) 924-7133.
