Judicial Boards

Middlebury College invests its students, staff and faculty with the power to maintain community values through our judicial system.

The Academic Judicial Board (AJB) reviews alleged violations of Middlebury's Honor Code: cheating, plagiarism, or other forms of academic dishonesty. Its membership includes four students, two professors, and one dean, as well as alternates.

The Community Judicial Board (CJB) reviews alleged violations of Middlebury's Commuity Standards and General Policies; Sexual Assault Policy; Alcohol and Other Drugs Policy; and other Handbook policies when the alleged violation is serious enough that official College discipline (probation or suspension) are possible outcomes. Its membership includes four students, one staff member, two faculty members, and one dean, as well as alternates.

The Judicial Appeals Board (JAB) reviews AJB and CJB cases when a new hearing has been granted through the appeals process. Its membership includes two student members of the AJB or CJB who did not hear the original case, two faculty members, and one member of the academic administration.
