Judicial Referrals

A student may be referred to WesWell by the Community Standards Board (CSB) or other judicial officer on campus; most frequently, these are for alcohol or other drug violations. This page describes what a student may expect for different types of referrals. Students who do not complete their assigned sanctions in a timely manner will be referred back to the CSB or judicial officer for further disciplinary action.  

Individual Meetings

A student referred to WesWell for an individual meeting will be required to set up an appointment. This is most quickly accomplished by emailing Shannon Perry, WesWell's Alcohol & Other Drug Specialist, at sperry01@wesleyan.edu. Meetings will run for approximately 45 minutes. If this meeting is in regard to an alcohol or cannabis violation, the student may be asked to complete an online assessment and email a copy of the results before their individual meeting. This provides the student with feedback on their behaviors and attitudes and provides a strong starting point for conversation.

University Service Hours

The Community Standards Board has the option of assigning students university service hours as a sanction for violations of the Code of Non-Academic Conduct. The CSB may choose to assign a student to complete their hours with WesWell, typically for an alcohol or drug violation. This may range from 5 to 20 hours or more, depending on the seriousness of the violation and other sanctions assigned.

The Director of Health Education will work with the student to develop a project that can be completed during their assigned hours and which will benefit the office's health education program. Past projects have included web resource research, development of brochures or bulletin board materials, research projects, fliering on campus, and completing clerical tasks, and inventory and organization of the resource room.
