WAC 132P-33-340   Appeal.  (1) Any student aggrieved by an order issued at the summary suspension proceedings may appeal the same to the college president or designee. No such appeal shall be entertained, however, unless written notice of the appeal, specifically describing alleged errors in the proceedings of findings of the dean of students and the college president, is tendered at the office of the college president within seventy-two hours following the date notice of summary suspension was served or mailed to the student, whichever occurred first.

     (2) The college president or designee shall, as soon as reasonably possible, examine the allegations contained within the notice of appeal, along with the findings of the dean of students, the record of summary suspension proceedings, and determine therefrom whether the summary suspension order is justified. Following such examination, the college president or designee may, at his/her discretion, stay the summary suspension pending determination of the merits of the disciplinary proceedings pursuant to the provisions of the code procedures.

     (3) The college president or designee shall notify the appealing student within forty-eight hours following his/her consideration of the notice of appeal, as to whether the summary suspension shall be maintained or stayed pending disposition of the disciplinary proceedings pursuant to the provisions of the code procedures.
