NCCC STUDENT DISCIPLINARY AND APPEAL PROCEDURES I. Status of Student Pending Final Action Pending action on charges, the status of a student should not be altered, or his right to be present on the campus and to attend class suspended, except for reasons relating to his physical or emotional safety and well-being, or for reasons relating to the safety and well-being of students, faculty, or college property. 11. Appeals Committee If a student questions the fairness of the disci- plinary action taken against him he may within 20 college days upon request, be granted a hearing before the regularly constituted Appeals Committee. A. The Appeals Committee will include four faculty and three student members. The members of this committee are to be nominated annually by the Student Life Committee and confirmed by the Faculty Senate, Student Government Association and the President. The student will select his Appeals Com- mittee from a pool of eight faculty members and six students who have been nominated to perform this task. B. Hearing Procedures - 1. The student should be informed, in writing, of the reasons for the proposed disciplinary action with sufficient particularity, and in sufficient time, to insure opportunity to prepare for the hearing. 2. The student appearing before the appeals com- mittee should have the right to be assisted in his defense by an advisor of his choice. 3. The burden of proof should rest upon the offi cials bringing the charge. 4. The student should be given an opportunity to testify and to present evidence and witnesses. He should have an opportunity to hear and question adverse witnesses. In no case should the committee consider sruioments against him unless he has been advised of their content and of the names of those who made them, and unless he has been given an opportunity to rebut unfavorable inferences which might otherwise be drawn. 5. All matters upon which the decision may be based must be introduced into evidence at the pro- ceeding before the hearing committee. The decision should be based solely upon such matters. Improperly acquired evidence should not be admitted. 6. In the absence of a transcript, there should be both a digest and a verbatim record, such as a tape recording, of the hearing. 7. The decision of the hearing committee should be final, subject only to the student's right of appeal to the President or ultimately to the governing board of the institution.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE MORATORIUM SUE JOHNSTON Roving Reporter Denny Brown: I think it's a great idea and am looking forward to participating. I hope that a, great majority of the students sup- port this action. A large per cent of the students are unhappy with the President's policy in Vietnam and this will give them a chance -to let their feelings be known. Jane Suthers: Definitely I'll be there! It's about time something is going to be done. I plan on fully supporting this action so that for once someone may know what's going on. %on Oriands: I feel that a firmer stand on U.S. policy in Vietnam should be taken by President Nix- on. If the majority of the colleges and universities of the nation take part some accomplishments on the situation may be obtained. Lynn Aiken: I feel that the mora- torium is a great idea for the stu- dents if they take it seriously. By participating the students are thinking of the future with great concern. After ail some day we'll be running the country and our interests shouldn't be spurred over night. Loretta Loyacane: I'll be there wifth great enthusiasm. I hope all the other Fine Arties will be there to join me. Bobo Erck: I think it's a pretty good idea myself. Anything to get out of class is pretty good thing anyway. I wouldn't miss it for the world. Maybe this will open President Nixon's eyes. Fae Main: I fully approve of the moratorium and hope that some sort of action will result from our ventures. I hope that a majority of students will participate to make this a worthwhile cause. See ya at City Hall kids! Paf Roberts: I intend on active- ly participating by going out to the citizens and talking with them about Vietnam. I feel that iby doing this the people will real- ize that we. the college students of the U.S., are interested and concerned with what's happening. There are far too many voters who are uninformed and just don't caire. Maybe for once they'll real- ize their lack o finvolvement and respond w ! th a spirit of hope. MORATORIUM SCHEDULED The following is the tentative schedule of activities for the Octo- ber 15 Student Moratorium: 9:00-11:00, Symposiums in the Parkway Inn 12:00-1:00—Folk Sing- ers 1:30-2:15, Planting of the \Tree of Life\ in memory of the war dead; 2:15-2:45, March from Cam- pus to City Hall; 2:45, Rally at City Hall. College Pop, Folk Talent The search is on for the nation's most talented collegiate pop and folk performers! The Budweiser-sponsored Inter- collegiate Music Festival swings into its fourth year of national competition with emphasis on pop and folk music and a new lineup of regional competitions. The Festival is open to vocalists, vocal groups and instrumental groups from U.S. colleges and uni- versities. Taped performances are judged to select finalists to compete at six regional events. Regional competi- tions will be held at Villanova Uni- versity, the University of South Florida, Couthern Illinois Univer- sity, the University of Texas and in Colorado and California. Regional winners will be flown to the national finals in August. The winners of the 1970 Inter- collegiate Music Festival will com- pete against Canadian national champions in Toronto for the North American College Music Champion- ships. Mare than 5,000 news media cover the Festival events. A world- wide radio audience of more than 150,000,000 people enjoyed the 1969 competition. Students may secure entry forms by writing: IMF, P.O. Box 1275, Leesburg, Florida 32748. Stay in Bed FRED DAICHENDT Among the wide range of curri- cula here at NCCC is a self taught course in \excuse making.\ After one or two weeks every student becomes very good at it, and is able to talk his way out of any- thing. Especially functions that concern the entire student body, such as the election of the student repre- sentatives. just two weeks ago. These ingenious manifestations of the mind range from \It's the only time that I had to eat lunch,\ all the way to. \Well I was over on Goat Island with my girl, and I'd rather be with her than a bunch of students that I don't even know.\ And so it continues, but don't worry people, we're still in first place among Western New York colleges as far as apathy goes. But I hear that there is a car-hop col- lege here in the U.S., where the students don't even bother to go to school, most of the time. Now that's real apathy. So if we're going to be first in the country, you people better stay in bed for the rest of the year. Ya know, now that I think of it, we're not that far away from that goal.
