dismissal from the program. Any student under the influence of drugs or alcohol while on AAAOM premises will be subject to discipline, including dismissal from the program. Students should advise the Academic Dean of any use of prescribed drugs which may affect the student's judgment, performance or behavior. Student Grievance AAAOM encourages truthful and frank dialogue among students, between students and faculty, and between students and the administration. In order to facilitate communication and satisfactory resolution of grievances, the following process should be followed: I. The individual with the grievance should first attempt to resolve the issue directly with the student concerned. 2. If this dialogue fails to resolve a grievance, the individual may arrange a meeting with the Academic Dean for appropriate resolution of the problem. 3. If the individual still believes the grievance has not been dealt with satisfactorily, he/she may make a written request to the Academic Dean for a hearing with an AAAOM Grievance Committee. A Student Grievance Committee enables students to pursue grievances against the administration or faculty. The responsibilities of the committee include: hearing the grievance; hearing the AAAOM's response; reviewing any action taken; gathering relevant information; preparing a recommendation to the president of the Academy. The Grievance Committee, appropriate to the issue, will be formed of three members, including faculty, student and/or administrative personnel (who are not involved in the grievance). 4. After the decision of the Grievance Committee, if the individual believes the ruling is unfair, he/she may choose to contact the Minnesota Higher Education Services Office at 1450 Energy Park Drive, Suite 350, St. Paul, Minnesota, telephone number: 65 I -642-0567, for further assistance.
