Student Grievance Form

Date received by Student Grievance
Committee or Senior Vice President
Grievance is defined as any matter of student concern or dissatisfaction within the control of the
college, except for the following: grades, attendance policies and matters of a purely academic
nature, matters involving allegations of sexual harassment, residency classification, and financial aid.
It is assumed that students will make every effort to resolve a presumed grievance via conversation
with the person or persons involved prior to setting in motion the grievance procedures. The college
encourages students who have problems to talk out these differences and make every effort to come
to a mutually satisfactory understanding before involving the wider college community in the
grievance process. Counselors will make every effort to assist with such attempts.
