The Judicial Process
The judicial process at Connecticut College approaches Honor Code violations from an educational perspective. The Honor Code encourages personal responsibility and accountability mindful of an individual's impact on the community. The sanctioning process provides an opportunity for students to reflect on their choices, the consequences of those actions, and make amends to the community.
Grounded in the Honor Code and the College's emphasis on shared governance, elected student representatives formally adjudicate alleged violations of the Connecticut College Honor Code. The Judicial Board ("J-Board") is advised by Associate Dean of Student Life, Sarah Cardwell.
For members of the campus community: Access the Honor Code incident report form to document or respond to an alleged infraction(s) of the Honor Code or other college policy. (PDF - Login required.)

Judicial Process Ombudspersons (JPOs)
JPOs are available to any member of the Connecticut College community involved in a disciplinary adjudication process. The JPO has no involvement in the adjudication of any cases, serves as an impartial and confidential information source and can answer questions about any of the judicial processes from the standpoint of the complainant or the respondent. The JPO can also assist faculty members, staff, and students who wish to better understand the various processes. The positions of Judicial Process Ombudspersons will be filled at the beginning of the Fall semester.
