If the behavior continues, they are shown the regulations privately and referred to the Area Dean which could result in removal from class for up to two consecutive class periods.

Threat Assessment

A threat assessment is when police assess, investigate and manage an individual and/or the situation to reduce any potential threat that may be posed.
When faculty or staff feel threatened, they have the option of calling campus police (209) 954‐5000 who will conduct a threat assessment.
The officer will report the results to the faculty or staff who felt threatened within three class sessions.
