This virtual seminar reviews fraternity/sorority student conduct procedures. During this seminar panelists will examine student conduct procedures for NPC sororities, fraternity/sorority conduct boards, and administrative policies for fraternity/sorority communities. What is the process for NPC sorority violations? How can fraternity/sorority conduct boards work together to determine the best outcome for the community? What are recommended practices for staff involvement in student conduct boards? An excellent skill-building opportunity, this virtual seminar will aid those who advise at the community level.
