Throughout the year, changes to some of these policies may be approved at the College of Business in Kent, Ohio. Students are encouraged to be alert for any public announcement made concerning changes to the rules and regulations governing student behavior. Although the general policies in this document are applicable to students on all campuses, the specific procedures are applicable only on the campus of the College of Business. Specific procedures for implementing these policies on the regional campuses are published for those campuses. Enforcement of university policy, rules, and regulations is everyone's responsibility. In addition to the various administrative channels for resolving complaints, the university community has adopted a Student Conduct Policy for adjudication of complaints between students and between faculty/staff and student. However, these channels can be effective only if individuals develop a greater awareness of them and are willing to utilize such channels in resolving grievances.

Student Academic Complaints

Kent State University is committed to provide all persons equal access to its programs, facilities, and employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, age, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, or identification as a disabled veteran, or veteran of the Vietnam era.
