3.9.4 - INTERIM SEPARATION

Based upon an individualized assessment of the currently available information, the Dean of Students or designee may impose an interim separation for a student who is determined to meet one or more of the following:

  1. The student presents a substantial risk of harm to, or endangers the safety, health, or wellbeing of, the University community or any member of the University community, including self. 
  2. The student presents a substantial risk of significantly disrupting the University community or any member of the community. 
  3. The student has demonstrated a significant and/or persistent inability to meet the community expectations of independent living or academic engagement. 

Interim separation pending an individualized assessment may include prohibiting the student from being present on Xavier’s campus and from participating in any university-related activities until the investigation has been completed.  The conditions of interim separation will be provided to the student in writing. 

Additional information on interim separations can be found in section 3.3.8.
