Judicial Chair’s Department
The Judicial Branch does not publicly disclose the identities of its University Judicial Council or Student Traffic Appeals Board members to protect their privacy and ability to remain impartial during hearings. The student-led Judicial Council partners with the Office of Conflict Resolution and Student Conduct to hear and decide cases of non-academic misconduct. Cases often include violations related to drugs, alcohol, hazing, assault and battery, fraud, or sexual misconduct. Student conduct cases are often initiated from reports by the University Police Department, the Department of Student Housing, and the Oxford Police Department. The judicial board provides a hearing process in order to assist students with resolving these problems. When necessary, the Judicial Council also hears internal ASB-related cases involving the ASB code and constitution in regards to judicial precedence.
