Grievance Procedure

Students and faculty are strongly encouraged to resolve disagreements informally. If this is impossible, the grievance should be presented to the Neuroscience Director and Steering Committee. If they are unable to resolve the dispute, a special ad hoc grievance committee whose composition is acceptable to both sides of the dispute will be formed to investigate the matter and make recommendations. The committee will consist of three Neuroscience faculty and two Neuroscience students. If further appeal is sought from this committee's recommendation, the matter will be referred to the Associate Dean of the Graduate School at the Medical Center. The Graduate School has an official Graduate School Grievance Procedure described in the Graduate School's Student Handbook.
