GOLD Program
The GOLD Program is rooted in principles currently used by the University of Denver and is meant to further enhance the Students Rights & Responsibilities experience for our students. The program draws heavily from the Community Remediation Program (CoRe) established by the Office of Conflict Resolution & Civic Responsibility at the University of Albany.
GOLD provides students on Probation or Elevated Probation (previously called Deferred Suspension) with the opportunity to demonstrate that they have taken steps to become a productive and engaged member of the University Community, repair harm created in the community, and further examine the effects of their actions on others. Comparisons can be made to the goals of the Restorative Justice Conference (RJC) program currently used by the University of Denver, since GOLD places emphasis on personal action and responsibility.
Students who successfully complete GOLD will be released from their Probation or Elevated Probation/Deferred Suspension earlier than the assigned end date, allowing students to become re-eligible to participate in study abroad opportunities, Fraternity and Sorority Life housing and activities, athletics, and any other engagement opportunities that are currently impacted by Probation or Elevated Probation/Deferred Suspension status.
