In the event of a finding that the grievance was supported, in whole or in part, by the evidence presented, the Vice President for Students or President’s Designee shall meet with the Grievant, the Respondent(s), and the appropriate College representative(s) and attempt to bring about a reasonable agreed-upon resolution of the grievance.
