The BCA consists of students jointly appointed by the Undergraduate Senate and the Graduate Student Council of the Associated Students of Stanford University, faculty appointed by the Senate of the Academic Council, and university staff approved by the Vice Provost for Student Affairs.
More About the BCA
In accordance with the Student Judicial Charter of 1997, the Board on Conduct Affairs (BCA) welcomes input from members of the Stanford community and invites them to propose suggestions about modification of judicial procedures. The BCA encourages open discussion while also recognizing the necessity of confidentiality in its discussion of sensitive topics. Summarized minutes will continue to be published on the web. Requests to present business in front of the BCA should be directed to the BCA co-chairs. Guests will be invited to attend specific parts of BCA meetings as appropriate. The BCA will have an open forum at least once per year for the community to contribute public comment.
