6.8.01 A law student who has reason to believe that
a prospective employer, who interviews on campus, does not comply with
Capital University and other applicable regulations concerning employment
practices, may file a complaint with the Office of the Dean.
6.8.02 The Dean or his or her designate will talk
informally with the prospective employer in an attempt to ascertain
the precise nature of that employer's policy.
6.8.03 If, based on the prospective employer's response,
the Dean has reason to believe that the prospective employer is not
in compliance with the relevant regulations, the Dean will appoint an
ad hoc committee to make a more formal inquiry to determine the facts.
The committee will submit a report to the Dean within a reasonable period
of time.
6.8.04 The Dean will decide whether the prospective
employer is in compliance with the relevant regulations. If not, the
Dean or his or her designate will attempt to use mediation to attempt
to bring the prospective employer into compliance. After mediation,
the Dean will determine whether a sanction should be imposed, or the
Dean can refer the entire matter to the faculty for decision. The sanction
can range from the filing of a formal objection (most likely in the
case of an inadvertent violation not likely to recur) to a denial of
the privilege to use law school premises, offices, or both for recruitment
purposes.
6.8.05 The Dean will report the matter, on a confidential
basis, to the faculty. If a faculty member disagrees with the Dean's
decision, he or she may appeal that decision to the faculty, which may
modify the sanction imposed by the Dean.
