As to any matter listed above which is preceded by an asterisk ^*, a report may be filed with the police in appropriate government offices as well as with the Vice President of Administrative and Legal Affairs or their designee. If any case that is submitted to the police results in an arrest, the University may, in its discretion, immediately suspend the student from all University classes and activities subject to a review of the case by the Student Discipline Committee. If any case that is submitted to the police results in a conviction, then the student shall be immediately suspended from all University classes and activities subject to a review of the case by the Student Discipline Committee if no prior action had been undertaken.

The fact that a person charged with a violation of conduct pleads guilty to an offense in a criminal proceeding may be considered by the Student Discipline Committee as an admission.
