Suggestions for Confronting Students Who have
Acted Out in the Classroom
1. When possible talk to student privately and
ask student to stop the behavior. 2. If the
student doesnt stop the behavior, let the
student know that if they continue, you will have
to ask them to leave class. 3. If the student
continues, let the student know that they will
need to leave the class for two class sessions
and then submit the removal from class form to
the Deans Office on the same day. 4. This
allows the Dean to contact the student to address
the behavior promptly. 5. Unless a matter of an
urgent and serious nature, students may generally
return after 2 class sessions. (Please note your
syllabus should address your policy for make up
exams, homework, etc. when removed from
class). 6. While students are entitled to their
due process rights and confidentiality, the Dean
of Student Affairs makes every effort to
communicate with the faculty member that follow
up has taken place.
