Student respondents in the conduct process may elect to have up to two advisors present during conduct meetings and hearings. Students who need assistance identifying an adviser may wish to connect with a member of the Respondent Resource Pool. When requested, members of the pool will be a supportive presence for any student who has been accused of a generally serious violation of the Student Conduct Code (this includes, but is not limited to sexual misconduct, harm to person, and high-level alcohol or drug offenses, etc). Respondent Resource Pool members are UMD staff-members who received training on the student conduct process.
