If you’re a student at Thomas Edison State University and you’re accused of misconduct, you should not speak to the school or others without taking the necessary precautions. Too much is at stake. You have to familiarize yourself with how Thomas Edison will address and adjudicate your case. It will depend on the specific misconduct alleged. Is it Title IX sexual misconduct? Is it an academic integrity or an academic misconduct charge? Or is it a general disciplinary issue? Thomas Edison has specific policies as to how each case would be addressed.

You also have to understand that Thomas Edison, as with all schools, is often in a rush to judgment and does not have an accused student’s rights and interests in mind. Having an experienced attorney-adviser involved in the startup process will help and can potentially help allow for the most favorable outcome.
