| (1) | The president or, in his absence, any
officer of the university designated by him for this purpose, may impose on any
student, faculty member, or staff member an interim suspension whenever there is
reasonable cause to believe that such person has committed, and may reasonably be
expected thereafter to commit, any of the acts prohibited herein. The notice of
such suspension shall state the nature, terms and conditions of such suspension
and shall include such restrictions on use of campus facilities as the president
or his designee deems in the best interest of the university. |
| (2) | Any person so placed on interim suspension shall be
given prompt notice of charges and shall be given the opportunity to show cause at
a preliminary hearing why such interim suspension should not continue until a
formal hearing is held. To obtain such preliminary hearing, the person shall submit
a written request therefor within seven days from the date interim suspension was
imposed. Such written request shall state the address to which notice of hearing is
to be sent. The president or, in his absence, any officer of the university
designated by him, shall grant such a preliminary hearing before a person or persons
designated by him not later than four days from the date of receipt of such request
and shall immediately mail a written notice of the time, place, and date of such
hearing to such person. The preliminary hearing shall consider only whether there is
reasonable cause to believe that such person committed, and may reasonably be
expected thereafter to commit, any of the acts prohibited herein. |
| (3) | Interim suspension may be removed by the president or, in his absence, by any officer of the university designated by him, whenever he has reason to believe that the person on whom interim suspension was imposed will not constitute a substantial and material threat to the orderly operation of the university campus or endanger the health and safety of any person thereon. |
