Membership

Committee members are an important part of the student conduct process at Dartmouth. Our members allow responding students to have their cases heard by a committee representative of the Dartmouth community. The Committee on Standards (COS) and Organizational Adjudication Committee (OAC) are comprised of second, third, and fourth-year students, faculty, and staff members.

Student Application

If you wish to join the COS and OAC, please fill out the cos_application_26x.doc. The Dean of Arts and Sciences will appoint students to the COS (through their application), or students can stand for election in the spring term. 

Requirements for Membership

  • Student members must be sophomores, juniors, and seniors who are not on college or academic probation during their terms of service. Students who are on leave terms are eligible to serve.
