This confidentiality extends to all student conduct bodies and forums.
- New York Tech will take reasonable steps to protect the privacy of the parties and witnesses during the conduct process, but will not restrict the ability of the parties to obtain and present evidence, including by speaking to witnesses; consulting with their family members and/or confidential resources; and otherwise preparing for or participating in the conduct process.
- New York Tech will also comply with laws which require the sharing of records or personal information between parties and their advisors, such as in the case of Gender-Based Misconduct allegations.
- In other cases involving alleged behavior where the complainant's rights are impacted, the Associate Dean of Students will inform the complainant whenever appropriate of the outcome of the conduct proceeding.
- All conduct proceedings are private and closed to the public, unless the student alleged to have violated the policy and the complainant (if applicable) agree in writing to an open hearing. However, the student conduct body, when necessary to maintain order or to protect the rights of other participants, can deem the proceedings closed to the public.
