Students are asked to keep the details of the student conduct process private and confidential among those directly involved in the case or investigating/managing the case. Participants in a student conduct process are asked not to discuss the case with other students, instructors or colleagues.
Exceptions and limits
Students may discuss their situation with a support person (counsellor, family member, LSU representative, or confidante), but are responsible to ensure that confidentiality is maintained.
Confidentiality cannot be ensured if a student is/appears to be at risk of harm to self or others, or has made reference to harming a child or senior, or shares knowledge of a child or senior being harmed. In such cases, relevant information will be shared with the appropriate bodies to ensure the safety of the student/community.
Information may be requested from other College administrators, staff or faculty if it is deemed pertinent to the investigation, management or resolution of a situation. Information may be shared with other members of the College on a need to know basis.
