The University’s policies differ from New Jersey criminal law. Proceedings under University policy may be carried out prior to, simultaneously with, or following civil or criminal proceedings off campus. Neither a decision by law enforcement regarding prosecution nor the outcome of any criminal proceeding will be considered determinative of whether a violation of University policy has occurred.
