The College of Business and Technology (CBT) Standards of Professional Behavior are designed and established to foster a safe, secure, and respectful learning environment conducive to the preparation of students for success in an increasingly challenging, diverse, and global society. Students enrolled in classes offered by the CBT are expected to behave according to the CBT Standards of Professional Behavior.

Students who may need assistance accessing sufficient food to eat every day, lack a safe and stable place to live, or who may be experiencing mental health challenges impacting their performance in the course are urged to contact Student Affairs or HawkReach Counseling Services for support. Additional resources are available through the Food Pantry (NSU-BA) and Rowdy's Resource Room (NSU-Tahlequah). An online report may also be submitted through the Report Concern link.

17. Course Concerns or Complaints
Students who wish to express a concern about a course or academic issue are encouraged to follow this process. Students who want to file a course grade appeal should consult the next section. It is important that the student initiate action (not parents, partners, or other relatives) and begin at the faculty or department chair level as most issues can be resolved there.

18. Grade Appeal
A student may petition a course grade change by using the Grade Appeals Timeline and Policy if satisfactory resolution cannot be achieved after informal grade review conferences with the instructor, department chair, and/or Dean’s office. The Grade Appeals Process must be formally initiated with a written appeal to the Dean within four months following awarding of the original course grade. Please contact the dean of the college in which the grade was given for a copy of the grade appeals process and the conditions which allow for the appeal of a course grade.
