GENERAL INFORMATION

PEOPLE TO KNOW Resident Advisors Your RA is your go-to-person for all concerns on your floor. Whether you want to get more involved, are in the middle of a roommate conflict, or are simply wanting a person to connect to, your RA is ready to assist you.

Desk Assistant Desk assistants are hired as our customer service staff and work at the front desk of your residence hall. They check out equipment from the front desk, provide information, and answer questions. This is a great first-year student employment opportunity!

Academic Resource Coordinators Every hall has at least one ARC to provide you with resources to be academically prepared.

They coordinate the writing center and math tutors, provide study nights, and offer self-assessments to help you learn more about how you best study.

Hall Custodian Each hall has one or two custodians working Monday through Friday to help keep the building clean. This team will maintain the basic cleanliness of the building, your assistance is needed to help keep your hall looking great!

Hall Managers These student staff members (HMs for short) live in your residence hall and assist the RLCs in supervising the hall staff and are great resources for you to contact with questions about the campus and residence hall, front desk, roommate concerns, or other questions.

Residence Life Coordinators These live-in professionals (RLCs for short) supervise the student staff within their building complex. They are here to assist in your transition to college providing academic, social, wellness, and personal development support.

Red Cedar Desk Services Manager The DSM manages all functions of the front desk, including supervision of the Desk Assistant staff, the coordination of resources, and management of keys and mail (on north campus). You may not ever see this person, but they play a key role in providing you with hall amenities.

04 | General Information

Maintenance Staff The maintenance mechanics repair things that are broken in the hall and do preventative maintenance to keep our building systems from breaking down. You may submit a maintenance request on the Housing Gateway to get something fixed in your room or residence hall.

Community Service Officer These staff members are employed by the University Police and work in conjunction with the RAs and hall staff to monitor the building between 12:00 AM and 7:00 AM. Additional Staff Members University Housing also has central office staff, computer staff, and other personnel who work to make your residence hall experience positive.

These individuals work in various locations, including the Housing Office in 170 Price Commons.

GENERAL INFORMATION

WHAT TO BRING Your room is your home! We encourage you to bring items with you that will make it just that.

We suggest bringing items like a TV, couch or futon (think about if it will fit up the stairs), small rug, room decorations (i.e. pictures, posters, plants), lighting, and storage items.

year that is a 40-mile driving distance from campus. Room selection times are based on contract signing dates (and for incoming students date of pre-payment). The earlier a student signs a contract the earlier they will get to select a room and the more room options that will be available to them.

On the practical side, you’ll want to bring extra-long twin sheets, towels, cleaning supplies, bathroom supplies and plates, bowls and eating utensils. Futons & couches need to be less than 80 inches long to fit under your lofted bed. An adjustable loft and micro-fridge are already in the room. Plus, the floor is carpeted from wallto-wall.

Two-Year Live-on Requirement Those freshman and sophomore students (59 credits or less) who are not veterans, married or living with parents of legal guardian (within a 40-mile driving distance of campus) shall be required to live in a university-operated residence hall when such accommodations are available.

WHAT NOT TO BRING We want you to make your residence hall room as comfortable as possible. However, for safety reasons, there are a few things you should leave at home, such as: candles, pets (other than fish), weapons (including concealed fire arms), explosives, paraphernalia, waterbeds, hot tubs, pools, externally mounted TV antennas, and cooking items with exposed elements (i.e. toasters, etc.).

Alcohol and/or empty containers like “grandpa’s beer bottle collection” are also against policy if you are under 21. If you are wondering about an item, check with us before you arrive.

HOUSING CONTRACT Students will sign a housing contract every year they live on campus. It is important that you read the contract terms prior to signing the contract. Once a contract is signed it cannot be canceled unless a student is no longer attending Stout or has a study abroad, internship, or student teaching experience for the full academic

Commuter Request Process In order to commute you must live with your parents or legal guardian within a 40-mile driving distance of campus. To request commuter status, go to the Housing Gateway and complete a commuter form.

If you have already signed a contract for the time frame you are requesting, you are not eligible to submit a commuter request form.

Exemption/Release Request Process Students requesting an exemption to the live-on policy for extenuating circumstances can submit an Exemption/Release Request on the Housing Gateway. Please see the Exemption/Release process online for more information.

ROOM ACCOMMODATIONS

AIR CONDITIONERS Residents can request for an air conditioner to be installed in their room, provided by University Housing. The resident will be charged $100 utility and installation fee per academic year for its use. To request an AC unit, login to the Housing Gateway and select ‘Apply for Air Conditioner’.

University Housing has a limited supply of AC units and installs them on a first-come, first-serve basis. To have a unit installed by move-in day, have your request submitted by August 1. For safety and liability reasons students are not able to use personal units or install/uninstall any air conditioner units.

Note: Air conditioning units are not permitted in Red Cedar or McCalmont Halls.

CABLE TV All residence halls have televisions located in lounges and basement spaces with cable TV availability. Additionally, each individual room has a cable connection. Just bring your own TV and a coax cord and perform a channel scan to receive 142 channels from Charter Communications.

For assistance, contact the Technology Help Desk (715-232-5000).

VISIT CHANNEL LISTINGS

CHECK-IN & CHECK-OUT When changing rooms, resident’s check-in to their new room by going to the front desk. Here you will get your new keys and can begin the move. Once everything is out of your old room, check-out at the front desk of that hall.

Whenever a resident leaves their room, the room

06 | Room Accommodations

should be left in the condition in which it was found. This means that all personal belongings are removed, furnishings returned to their original locations, and room is cleaned. Once this has been completed, go to the front desk to checkout. Desk staff will go with you to inspect the room. Failure to follow the process will result in an improper check-out fee, in addition to being assessed for any damages. Residents will be charged for any damages to walls, ceiling, carpet, furniture, and missing items that are found by hall staff, including student staff and custodial staff.

Before leaving, residents should: • Vacuum the carpet and dust all surfaces.

• Clean the mirror.

• Have all personal belongings out of the room

before desk staff inspects the room.

• Check their mailbox before returning keys to

the desk staff.

Students withdrawing from the University must initiate the withdrawal process at the Registration and Records Office (109 Bowman Hall).

There will be a $25 per day charge for unauthorized occupation of a room. For all check-out information, watch your email for information about the process.

Note: Students withdrawing from the University should update their mailing address by logging onto Access Stout, clicking on ‘Self Service’ and then ‘Student Center’.

COMPUTER CONNECTIONS AND PRINTERS Each residence hall room is equipped with 1 or 2 high-speed data jacks. Students can use an ethernet cable to connect to the jack, or connect wirelessly. Both internet connections provide 100 Mbps of connection to the network.

ROOM ACCOMMODATIONS

Students using wireless should use the StoutSecure network. StoutSecure provides users with encrypted, secure, high-speed internet access for laptops and other personal devices. If a device is unable to use StoutSecure, then StoutNonSecure can be used. StoutNonSecure is a non-broadcasted and unsecured network. The first login will require users to enter the wireless network name, which is ‘StoutNonSecure’.

StoutGuest network is intended for university guests. It is an unsecured network with limited data rates and allows only http and https protocols. It also requires users to re-authenticate every 4 hours. This network is not intended for use by faculty, staff, or students.

All halls have printing stations located on the lowest level of the building. Printers are provided for use by residents, free of charge. However, students must provide their own paper.

For support with any of your computer issues, contact the Technology Help desk at (715) 232-5000.

ROOM CHANGE Students may request a room change throughout the semester by logging onto the Housing Gateway. However, during the first three weeks of each semester and during any University Housing sanctioned room freeze, room switches are not permitted.

Additionally, students will have the ability to make room changes for spring semester in early December, when University Housing offers a Room Switch Night. Students should contact their Residence Life Coordinator to get more information about the process. If a room change is

made at any time, see the ‘Check-In and CheckOut’ section to learn more about the move and watch your email for more information.

ROOM FURNISHINGS All university-owned furnishings must stay in student rooms. This includes even those rooms occupied as singles. Any furnishings affixed to the wall cannot be removed. This includes mirrors, bulletin boards, closets and/or closet curtains, desks, bookshelves, smoke detectors, and electrical fixtures. Windows and screens must always remain in place. Public lounge furniture is NOT permitted in student rooms.

University Housing provides refrigerators, microwaves and lofts for all student rooms. As a result, students are not allowed to bring additional refrigerators, microwaves or build any kind of loft or bunk bed in their room. While your bed is lofted, the distance from the top of the mattress to the ceiling must be at least 25”. When arranging the room furniture, students must maintain a 30” (width) x 72” (height) path of egress from the door to the window.

ROOM TEMPERATURE To regulate the room temperature, open and close the damper on the room radiator. For energy efficiency, please close the windows in the winter. The placement of furniture and other belongings in front of the heating unit also prevents the circulation of air that is needed for the unit to function properly.

In Red Cedar Hall, thermostats are provided in the suite to regulate the entire suite and yearly inspections are done on heating units.

If there is a problem with heat or cooling temperature control in McCalmont or Red Cedar

Room Accommodations | 07

ROOM ACCOMMODATIONS

Halls, report it on a maintenance request found in the Housing Gateway.

SINGLE ROOMS A limited number of single rooms are available on campus. Students are assigned to completely open single rooms based on availability and the following priority ranking:

1. Current upper-level residents 2. Current residents who are second-year students 3. Current residents who are first-year students 4. Transfer students 5. Off-campus students 6. New first-year students

Students whose roommate moves out may be offered the opportunity to purchase their room as a single. This depends upon occupancy numbers when the vacancy occurs.

WITHOUT A ROOMMATE Students who involuntarily find themselves without a roommate will receive an email from University Housing informing them that their roommate is leaving and information on several options on how to move forward. These options may include paying for a single room, moving to a room with someone else who also has a vacancy, or agreeing to allow Housing to assign a new roommate. If there are two or more open spaces in a community, students will be consolidated into one space. More detailed information can be provided by your Residence Life Coordinator.

PROCEDURES & SERVICES

ABANDONED PERSONAL PROPERTY Students are responsible for removal of all personal belongings when they check-out of their room. University Housing reserves the right, without assuming any liability, to dispose of all personal property considered to be abandoned.

Students have 30 days to claim their abandoned property. Abandoned property will be boxed up and stored as needed. The student who has abandoned the property will be notified via their Stout e-mail account and via letter to their home address of the date by which their items will be disposed of accordingly.

BED BUGS University Housing hires a team of professionals to do a complete search of all residence hall rooms every year to verify that we have no bed bugs in our buildings. If you suspect that you or someone you know has brought bed bugs into the residence halls, please contact your RA or Residence Life Coordinator immediately and submit a Maintenance Request through the Housing Gateway.

Residents are also encouraged to lock room doors and carry renter’s insurance. While the University is not responsible for personal possessions that are lost, stolen or damaged, they will investigate any cases of theft.

To report any unauthorized or suspicious person or theft, contact University Police, (715) 232-2222.

COMMUNITY SERVICE OFFICERS (CSOs) Community Service Officers are students employed by University Police who complete security and safety rounds of the residence halls from midnight to 7:00 am every night.

COMMUNICATION University Housing will communicate with residents via their official University e-mail account.

It is the responsibility of the student to check their e-mail account regularly, as important information is communicated (i.e. contract information, housing updates, conduct information, and package arrival).

Stout Housing

BUILDING ACCESS & SECURITY The residence halls are closed to the public 24-hours a day, except during move-in and move-out periods when the buildings will be unlocked during the day to ease the process.

All other times, residents of the hall will need to use their Stout Blue Card to access their building. Students should not let unknown people in the door behind them and should always meet guests at exterior doors to escort them in the building. Do not prop open any outside doors; doing so endangers the security of all residents.

If you suspect there is an unauthorized or suspicious person in the hall, contact University Police.

10 | Procedures & Services

Stout_Housing

FRONT DESK Each residence hall front desk serves students and guests with services including distributing hall and campus information, equipment and DVD check-out, access to specialty rooms, cleaning supplies (vacuums, garbage bags, etc.), loan key check-out, room check-in and check-out, and reservations. Policies for services and equipment check-out are established by each residence hall.

Front Desk Hours of Operation: Monday—Friday 8:00 am—midnight Saturday—Sunday 9:00 am—midnight

PROCEDURES & SERVICES

RECYCLING, COMPOST, & TRASH Each student room is furnished with a recycling basket and a garbage basket. Students are responsible for taking their garbage to the dumpsters located outside their residence hall.

Recycling and composting centers are found on each residence hall floor. Recyclable items should be free from contaminates such as food, drink, and other debris. Glass, plastic (#1-7), cans, and paper do not need to be sorted. Compostable items include food waste, dining service “to-go” containers/cups/dinnerware, paper towels, napkins, and greasy pizza boxes.

GRIEVANCE PROCESS If you feel an RA has used their position to pressure, coerce, or inappropriately influence others to attend or participate in a meeting or has otherwise acted inappropriately, please see your Residence Life Coordinator or contact the supervisor of the person whom you feel acted inappropriately.

HALL DAMAGE FEES Any time a resident checks-out of their room, building staff will inspect the room for cleanliness and damages. It is important that students fill out their room condition report at the beginning of the year so any damages that were there at move-in, are not charged to the current resident. A list of hall damage fees can be found in this handbook on page 20.

KEYS A room key is provided to residents upon checkin. If a student believes they have lost their keys, they can check-out a loan set from the front desk. After seven (7) days, a key replacement will be automatically initiated.

KITCHENS & LOUNGES Each residence hall has a kitchen available for student use in the basement. Red Cedar, Fleming-Hovlid, McCalmont & Wigen Halls also have kitchens in each floor lounge. You are responsible for safety and cleaning of the area during use as it is a communal space. Food may be stored in the refrigerator, but the University assumes no liability for spoilage and theft. Periodically, the refrigerators are cleaned with notice; any unclaimed food and containers will be disposed of.

If you wish to utilize a kitchen storage unit, keys for the locker units are available for checkout at the front desk in every hall except Red Cedar.

Lounge spaces are also located through each hall, on floors and in basements. Lounges can be used for studying, socializing, and watching TV. Be respectful of others when using the space.

LAUNDRY Each residence hall has a laundry room equipped with washers and dryers that can be paid for by a student’s Stout Blue Card. Students must provide their own detergent, dryer sheets, etc.

Washers and dryers cost $1.00 for each cycle.

Do not leave your laundry unattended as the University assumes no responsibility for lost or stolen items.

VISIT LAUNDRY VIEW

Note: Washers are front-loading and require much less detergent than top-loading machines.

PROCEDURES & SERVICES

MAIL AND PACKAGES On North Campus, students receive their mail and packages at their residence hall front desk.

Mail for students living on Main Campus is distributed at Price Commons. Students can access their mailbox using their mailbox key, which is distributed at check-in.

Students will be sent emails and text messages, if opted in, via the Housing Package system, called Notifii. Students will need to present their Stout Blue Card to receive their packages.

Mass mailings are limited to essential information from the University. Mass campus mailings will be processed for a fee—contact University Housing at 715-232-1121 or housing@uwstout.edu for more information.

Students leaving the residence halls can update their mailing address by logging into Access Stout, clicking on ‘Self Service’, then on ‘Student Center’ to have their mail forwarded to a different address.

MAINTENANCE REQUESTS For routine maintenance, log on to House Gateway and then click on ‘Maintenance Request’.

Emergency maintenance items should be reported to the front desk or an RA. Students may request maintenance for problems in their room or in public areas. If you submit a maintenance request, be sure to have the area that needs attention cleared and ready for staff to complete maintenance. A request for maintenance indicates permission for a maintenance staff member to enter a student’s room.

12 | Procedures & Services

MISSING STUDENTS If you believe that a student is missing, contact the police directly or submit a ‘Missing Student Notification’ form by navigating to ‘Policies and Procedures’ and clicking on ‘Safety’ on the University Housing website. Students completing this form should submit it to their Resident Advisor or Residence Life Coordinator who will then contact University Police and the Dean of Students Office.

University Housing will notify authorities when residence hall students have been deemed missing. Those notified include University Police for all individuals, and either the parent/guardian for residents under the age of 18, OR the emergency contact of students who are over the age of 18.

Emergency contact information will be obtained from the information residents provide to the campus.

SERVICE & EMOTIONAL

SUPPORT ANIMALS With appropriate approvals, service and emotional support animals are permitted in University Housing. Students wishing to have an animal on-campus should contact Disability Services to obtain the necessary paperwork to begin the animal request process.

SOLICITATION Door-to-door solicitation is not permitted in the residence halls. Solicitation is defined as selling, peddling, distributing, and/or collecting materials or information, free or otherwise. Organizations may request permission to set up a booth in the main lobby of the residence halls. Requests should be directed to the Residence Life Coordinator of the hall.

CODE OF CONDUCT

PHILOSOPHY AND GOALS University Housing’s expectation is that individual students, floor communities, residence hall communities and University Housing staff share responsibility for ensuring that our residence halls are safe, secure, and healthy living and learning environments that meet student needs.

As in every community, University Housing has specific rules and regulations, as well as general guidelines of good citizenship and responsible behavior. When students’ behaviors are illegal, jeopardize the rights of others, or violate the University Housing Code of Conduct they will be held accountable through the conduct system. By signing the University Housing & Dining Service Contract, a student agrees to abide by University Housing policies.

The goals of the conduct system are to: • Facilitate an environment conducive to

living and learning • Allow students to learn from each other about how their behavior affects others • Protect the rights of all students • Hold students accountable for their actions and the actions of their guest(s) • Provide students and staff members with a

uniform conduct process Based on students’ dual citizenship in the campus community and in the city/county/state communities, disciplinary processes may run simultaneously with sanctions occurring as part of both the city/county/state courts and the University conduct system (either through the Dean of Students office or University Housing).

Student Rights • To be notified of the charges within 7 working

days of being identified as part of the incident • To have a fair and prompt hearing • To be notified promptly of the hearing results • To be advised of the appeal process Students Responsibilities • To attend a hearing/conduct meeting with the

University official • To be respectful during the conduct process • To provide accurate, truthful, and appropri-

ate information regarding the incident at

every level of the conduct process OVERVIEW OF CONDUCT PROCESS When a resident violates a policy, an incident report is filed and provided to the Residence Life Coordinator of the building in which the resident lives. Any student, faculty, or staff member can file an incident report. The RLC will review the incident report to determine if there are grounds for a hearing and by whom the case should be heard. Many cases will be heard in the resident’s hall by their RLC, however, some cases that qualify under Chapter 17 of the UW-System policy will be heard by the Dean of Students Office.

These cases may include: • Domestic Abuse • Harassment • Hazing • Physical Assault • Sexual Assault • Sexual Harassment • Stalking

RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES Students are guaranteed certain rights and are expected to take ownership in their responsibility within the conduct process.

Code of Conduct | 13

CODE OF CONDUCT

STEP-BY-STEP CONDUCT PROCESS

1

Documentation or “Write Up” If a staff member writes you up, they will write a report that identifies all individuals in the situation, a time line and description of events. Being documented doesn’t necessarily mean you have violated policy. Your meeting with the Residence Life Coordinator (RLC) will determine responsibility. An RLC reviews the report, identifies policies potentially violated and contacts you via email to request a meeting: • In minor policy violations, you may receive a

warning and not be required to meet with a

Residence Life Coordinator.

• In more serious cases, you may be asked to

meet with an Assistant Director of Housing

or a Dean of Students staff member.

Meeting with the Residence Life Coordinator 2 This meeting is your chance to impact the outcome of the hearing by sharing your perspective of what happened. It also gives the RLC the chance to get to know you better, ask questions, and assess your level of responsibility in the situation. If you choose to not participate in this meeting you lose the opportunity to have your story heard.

Based off the information shared in the meeting the RLC will determine if you are responsible or not responsible for violating any policies.

relationship with the community and University Housing.

Warning: if you receive a warning for a policy it means that the RLC wants you to be more aware of your behaviors as it relates to that specific policy in the future. Multiple warnings will not be given for the same policy violation.

3

Conduct Sanctions If found responsible common sanctions you might be assigned include: reflective and/or research papers, involvement or service hours, online computer education modules, written apologies, University Housing probation, parent letter notification, or creating educational bulletin boards, bathroom readers or brochures for peers.

Sanctions have a due date that should be met.

If you feel you need more time to complete the issued sanctions, please contact your RLC to discuss a possible new due date.

If you fail to complete sanctions, it could result in a hold being placed on your University Account which can stop you from being able to perform essential university activity such as: registering for classes, studying abroad or requesting an official transcript.

4

Not Responsible: if you are found not responsible the case is closed and you don’t have to do anything further to resolve the situation.

Future Documentations The more conduct violations you are found responsible for, the more severe and involved your sanctions will likely be. In some situations a first incident may be so severe that the sanctions listed below could be imposed:

Responsible: if you are found responsible for violating policy you will be assigned sanctions or educational consequences that will need to be completed. Our goal is for you to repair your

• Relocated to another residence hall • Termination of a student’s housing

and/or dining contract • Suspension from the University

14 | Code of Conduct

CODE OF CONDUCT

You may be immediately removed from the residence hall for behavior that may jeopardizes the health or safety of other community members.

Some examples of this behavior may include:

• Physical Assault • Sexual Assault • Drugs • Fire Safety Violations including possession of fireworks • Weapons

APPEALS PROCESS Upon receipt of the decision, residents may submit a written appeal within five (5) calendar days from the date of the decision. Residents must submit the online appeal form and must appeal for one of following reasons:

1. Severity of the sanction 2. Introduction of new evidence not present at the initial hearing 3. Lack of procedural due process (your stu- dent rights were not honored)

Appeals will be handled by an Assistant Director of University Housing. Once an appeal has been received, the Assistant Director will invite the resident to meet. If the resident does not meet with the Assistant Director, the appeal will not be acted upon and the sanction will remain unchanged until the meeting occurs. Once a resident has met with the Assistant Director, a final decision letter will be sent to the resident generally within 10 calendar days.

Appeals made based on severity of the sanction are a review of the disciplinary action and not a rehearing of the case. Appeals made based on introduction of new evidence or lack of procedural due process are a rehearing of the case based on new pertinent information.

THE CLERY ACT The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, codified at 20 USC 1092 (f) as a part of the Higher Education Act of 1965, is a federal law that requires colleges and universities to disclose certain timely and annual information about campus crime and security policies. All public and private institutions of postsecondary education participating in federal student aid programs are subject to it.

Wisconsin Statutes require the provision of specific crime statistic information including specific information about sexual assault and sexual harassment issues. Additionally, information about alcohol, drug, and weapons incidents are also included in the Clery Report. In passing these laws, the Federal government and the State of Wisconsin have made a commitment to enhance safety by requiring the University to provide this specific information. The statistics are submitted to the University Police each year and the Clery Report is published annually. UW-Stout’s Clery Report can be found at: https://www.uwstout. edu/life-stout/police-and-parking/clery-information FERPA The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), also known as the Buckley Amendment, provides for the confidentiality of student records and information for students 18 years and older. To stay compliance with this federal regulation, there may be times that we require a student to complete and sign a release form for a parent to receive confidential information regarding their son or daughter. (See Forms Section) The student can specify that certain information not be released regarding a situation.

With FERPA, it is possible for us to be able to notify parents when a student is found responsiCode of Conduct | 15

CODE OF CONDUCT

ble for an alcohol violation without violating their rights. In 1998 FERPA was amended to allow such disclosures. The amendment outlined two guidelines we must follow in order to release this information without being in violation of FERPA:

• We must determine that the student has committed a disciplinary violation with re- spect to that use or possession.

• The student must be under the age of 21 at the time of the disclosure to the parent.

DEAN OF STUDENTS The Dean of Students Office monitors all conduct cases on and off campus and provides support and consultation to the University Housing conduct process. Severe conduct cases will be referred to the Dean of Students Office for adjudication under the University of Wisconsin-System Administrative Code, Chapter 17. Examples of cases adjudicated under UWS Ch 17 include but aren’t limited to:

• • • • • • • • • • •

Dangerous Conduct Domestic Abuse Harassment Hazing Misuse of Computing Resources Physical Assault Sexual Assault Sexual Harassment Stalking Violations of Criminal Law Serious or repeated alcohol and controlled substance violations.

• Violation of University Rules (including

University Housing policies

16 | Code of Conduct

CHAPTER 17 Professional staff from the Dean of Students Office and University Housing, who are trained conduct officers, will investigate and adjudicate conduct cases under UWS Chapter 17 that originate both on and off campus.

The investigator will send you an offer to discuss the matter before deciding that misconduct occurred or imposing sanctions. The purpose of this meeting is to review with you the report that you engaged in misconduct and to allow you an opportunity to respond.

You may choose not to participate in such a meeting, but the investigator will make a decision based on the available evidence if you choose not to discuss the matter.

If the investigator concludes that you did violate University Chapter 17, and if you disagree with the finding of responsibility and/or sanction imposed, you always have the right to a hearing.
