Counseling and Human Resource Development Program Remediation Policy

Step 1

A faculty member will raise the concern pertaining to the student during the student review conference or bring it directly to the department head. The faculty and/or head will discuss options in executive session of the student review conference to determine if a formal individualized written plan of action is necessary.

Step 2

The nature of the problem and the formal individualized plan for addressing the problem (including recommended remedial assistance as needed) are written and discussed with the student to ensure mutual understanding.

Step 3

If the student agrees to the written plan, it is then placed in the student's departmental file. In some cases, the student may be asked to take a leave of absence from the program or to terminate involvement with the program. In all formal individualized written plans, the department head is informed and due process is observed to protect the student rights and university responsibilities.

Step 4

Once the plan has been successfully completed, a formal document stating the student has fully complied with the remediation plan and is considered in "good standing" in the program will be written and placed in the student's departmental and graduate file. If the student does not successfully address the items specified in the remediation plan, he or she will be advised to leave the program.
