Policies and procedures at the university are intended to maintain
an orderly educational environment conducive to student learning and
development. In order to fulfill institutional responsibility and at
the same time follow procedures that are fair, consistent, and
protective of each person's rights, appropriate dispute resolution procedures
have been established. If a student has reason to believe that an
academic or administrative action is unjust, capricious, or
discriminatory, these procedures are available for the student to seek
redress.
The University Dispute Resolution Committee is comprised of six
individuals trained in dispute resolution. They are Michelle Ceynar
(253.535.7297), Tom Huelsbeck (253.535.7202), Fran Lane Rasmus
(253.535.7141), Teri Phillips (253.535.7187), Leon Reisberg
(253.535.7280) and Pam Deacon (253.535.7618). Any of the
committee members may be contacted to receive assistance.
Copies of dispute resolution procedures are available for review at the office of each committee member. Students with disabilities who want to appeal a decision regarding an accommodation should contact the Director of the Counseling Center (253.535.7206), the ADA Compliance Officer.
