Section 19: Discipline of students.

1 Subject to the provisions of this section, where it appears to the Vice-Chancellor that any student is guilty of misconduct, the Vice-Chancellor may, without prejudice to any other disciplinary powers conferred on him by statute or regulations, direct that the-
a student shall not, during the period as may be specified in the direction, participate in the activities of the University or make use of the facilities of the University as may be specified;
b activities of the student shall, during the period as may be specified in the direction, be restricted in such manner as may be specified; or
c student be rusticated for the period as may be specified in the direction.

2 Where a direction is given under subsection (1) (b) or (c) in respect of any student, the student may, within the prescribed period and in the prescribed manner, appeal against the direction to the Senate.

3 Where an appeal is brought under subsection (2), the Senate shall, after causing such inquiry to be made in the matter as the Senate considers just, either confirm or set aside the direction or modify it in such manner as the Senate deems fit.

4 The fact that an appeal from a direction is brought under subsection (2) shall not affect the operation of the direction while the appeal is pending.

5 The Vice-Chancellor may delegate his powers under this section to a disciplinary board consisting of such members of the University as he may nominate.

6 Nothing in this section shall be construed as preventing the restriction or termination of a student's activities at the University for conduct which in the opinion of Senate is prejudicial to the interest of the University or to its corporate objective or image.

7 A direction under subsection (1) (a) may be combined with a direction under subsection (1) (b).
