Mission Statement
The Technology Appeals Committee's mission is to provide an opportunity for individuals to contest charges from the Information & Technology Department; while acknowledging the Concordia University Mission Statement.
Responsibilities
Our responsibility is to listen, consider, and respond to the appeals brought before the committee in a way that fairly represents the interests of both the student and Concordia University Policy.
Membership
When senate is in session, at least two but no more than four student senators will be appointed representatives on this committee. There will be two I.T. staff members assigned to the committee in order to properly represent the appealed charges. The split in representation will ensure fair and impartial assessments of all appeals. Appeals submitted during the summer will be based off previous senate representation.
Resolution
The committee is given several options when dealing with technology fines. The committee may upon its choosing, decide to go ahead and fine the user, or it may also give a partial fine. Lastly, if the committee decides to forgo the fine the money needed to repair the machine would be generated from the school, which ultimately translates to passing the bill onto other students who must pay for the broken machine in tuition dollars in the long run.
