On-Campus Incidents

The Office of the Dean (x5444) investigates reported hate crimes that occur on the UJ campus. The Dean or appointed designee will discuss with you your rights, options and the procedures involved in pursuing criminal charges. Incidents that are classified as felonies are usually investigated jointly with the Jamestown Police Department the Stutsman County District Attorney’s Office.

Alleged violations of the UJ Student Conduct Code will be referred to the Office of Student Affairs (x5444) or designee. This office or designee will take judicial action against any student involved in an act that threatens the safety and welfare of another individual. Judicial action is pursued according to the procedures outlined in the student conduct code.

The possible sanctions that can be imposed as a result of determination of responsibility in a case of a hate crime follow the same range of sanctions available for any policy violation at UJ. The University reserves the right to summarily remove a student from University housing or from the University campus pending a judicial investigation when such action is necessary to ensure the protection and welfare of the University community.
