The student conduct process is designed to provide students their procedural due process rights, allowing students to provide a personal version of the event, and provide resolution to any violations of the Standard of Conduct. The process is outlined by Section 200.020 of the University of Missouri Collected Rules and Regulations and generally includes the following steps:

1. An incident is reported to Student Support and Community Standards
2. The student or student organization receives a meeting request outlining the alleged violation and scheduled meeting time. Note that students have a right to bring an advisor to the meeting with them. The Role of an Advisor is not to speak on behalf of the student, but to be a supporting presence. 
3. The student or student organization representatives meet with a student conduct officer to discuss the incident and any potential violations of the Standard of Conduct
1. Other students or individuals who may have additional information or perspectives may also be asked to meet with the conduct officer.
2. Any potential violations will be reviewed using the Preponderance of Evidence of Standard, or “more likely than not.”
4. At the conclusion of the investigation, if a violation of the Standard of Conduct is determined, an informal disposition is offered to bring an informal resolution to the matter. The informal disposition includes:
1. A summary of the violation of the Standard of Conduct
2. A summary of the facts discovered in the investigation
3. Proposed resolution to the matter
4. An allotted timeframe to accept or reject the informal disposition
5. Should the informal disposition be accepted, all proposed requirements will go into effect. If rejected, the student or student organization representative will meet with the conduct officer or designee to discuss the formal hearing process. If the student or student organization representative does not reply to the informal disposition within the allotted timeframe, the informal disposition automatically goes into effect as well as the proposed sanctions.
6. When requirements go into effect, it is the responsibility of the student or student organization to complete those requirements within the time frame outlined. If a student does not complete requirements within the time frame, a hold may be placed on their student account to prevent future course registration.
