FAQ
As a student, how will I know if I have to meet with Judicial Affairs?
A notice is sent to the student's preferred e-mail address as listed in CUNYfirst. The student may also receive a letter in the mail or a phone call.
As a complainant, can I remain anonymous?
On the Student Behavior Form, there is an option stating, "I would like to remain anonymous." However, it depends on the case. A Judicial Affairs representative will discuss this with the complainant to determine if anonymity is possible and to what extent.
As a student who got reported, will the college tell my parents?
No. Students' disciplinary records are protected by FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act). However, if a student has submitted a FERPA Release Form to the Enrollment Services Center, then we are able to share the student's disciplinary record with whomever was named on the FERPA Release Form.
What if I have a complaint about a faculty or staff member, not a student?
The Office of Judicial Affairs investigates complaints about students only. However, if someone has a complaint about a faculty or staff member, a Student Affairs representative can provide guidance and refer the complainant to the appropriate office.
