Step 4 - Appeal to the president:

Once the formal grade appeal is received, the president will appoint a grade appeal committee to hear the appeal within ten (10) business days of the receipt of the appeal.
The grade appeal committee will be chaired by the president, or a designee, who will be a non-voting member except in the case of a tie. Voting members will consist of four (4) faculty members not associated with the appeal, one (1) student representative with a minimum GPA of 2.5 or greater, and the vice president of instruction.
The grade appeal hearing will be conducted in closed session in accordance with the Open Meetings Law unless otherwise requested in writing by the student. Neither the college nor the student will be permitted to have legal representation during the grade appeal hearing.
The committee will be made up of members from the campus of attendance to assure a fair and equitable hearing.
The committee will hear all parties involved and render a written decision that is considered to be fair and educationally sound within ten (10) business days. The decision of the committee will be the final binding decision for the institution.
