V. Student Disciplinary Records
Because the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act defines the records of a student engaged in a disciplinary process as private, information about the disciplinary process may only be shared with the student found
responsible, his/her parents if a dependent, his/her academic college dean or adviser and school officials with a legitimate educational interest. The student must give written permission for anyone else to have access to this
information, unless otherwise permitted by federal or state law. For additional information regarding FERPA, see the complete policy on page 34 of this handbook.
Retention of Disciplinary Records
At the completion of the disciplinary action(s) the student’s record shall be returned to good standing, but the disciplinary action(s) and supporting material shall be retained in the student’s file until two years after his/her
graduation date or that of the student’s class if he/she does not continue at Marquette. At that time, the material will be destroyed, except for those records dealing with suspension or expulsion. Such a record may be introduced and given due consideration in any subsequent case in
which the student may be involved.
If a student is found not responsible for all the charges filed against him or her, or if a student is exonerated or the charges dropped, the contents of the file directly related to the incident will be removed and destroyed at
the conclusion of the case.
