Dean revives college courts
· Changes to the Student Code of Conduct by Assistant Dean of Student Judicial Programs Don Ostdiek may revive college courts. Class II violations -- minor violations that primarily concern breaking college rules or damaging college property -- have been renamed "college infractions." A college has the authority to determine how it adjudicates such infractions, which could be before the college court. Most colleges have a framework for a college court, but the courts are mostly inactive.
Fire causes little permanent damage
· A base chemical bath caused a fire in the organic chemistry laboratory on the third floor of George R. Brown Hall Aug. 24. The fire started when the postdoctorate associate working in the lab left the room. There were no injuries.
Serveries to offer Saturday dinner
· Saturday evening adventures in search of off-campus food may soon become an event of the past. Starting tomorrow, the North College and Hanszen/Wiess College serveries will provide Saturday night dinners instead of Saturday morning breakfast.
