An appeals board must consist of at least three members. A quorum of three is needed to review a matter. A minimum of one appeals board member hearing a matter must be a student. The remaining members may be students, or full-time or part-time faculty or staff of any rank or classification. No appeals board member may serve on a case if the member previously served on a board in a case involving the same complainant or respondent. One member of the appeals board serves as the chair of the board. The chair is responsible for ensuring a fair and impartial process and is a voting member of the appeals board.
