Welcome to the Office of Judicial Affairs

Mission Statement

The Office of Judicial Affairs is committed to promoting student learning, civic responsibility and through partnerships, developing the community necessary for CCBC to achieve and maintain its mission, vision, and values.

The Office of Judicial Affairs maintains the belief that all members of the CCBC community should work together to create an environment of civility. The interest of judicial affairs is to ensure mutual respect among the student population. The Office adjudicates cases and educates students who are charged with violations noted on the Code of Conduct.

The primary function of the Office of Judicial Affairs is to implement the Code of Conduct in order to assure standards of acceptable behavior that protects students’ health, safety, welfare, and property. It does this by providing the opportunity to resolve academic integrity and student disciplinary issues.

CCBC views the Code of Conduct process as a learning experience that can result in growth and personal understanding of one’s responsibilities and privileges within both the CCBC community and the greater community. All students who violate these standards will be subject to the actions described in the Code of Conduct. These procedures are designed to provide fairness to all who are involved in the judiciary process.
