  1. File a Student Complaint Form in writing to the Dean of Students within 30 days of the incident.
  2. The Dean of Students will investigate the complaint, consulting with other RSCC personnel as needed, and notify the student of the outcome within 10 days.
  3. If the student is not satisfied with how the Dean of Students has tried to resolve the issue, the student may be heard by the Vice President of Student Learning and/or the Vice President of Student Services and Enrollment Management.

If the student has other complaints not resolved by RSCC they may follow the information below regarding the Tennessee Board of Regents (TBR) student complaint procedures.
