What do we have now?

July 22, 2025

Currently, discipline at the university focuses more on punishment than on repairing harm, and there is no formal process to address bias in disciplinary actions. Informal resolution options and protections against biased discipline are limited. Worse, members of PSU leadership and stewards have documented that discipline is more frequently—and more harshly—applied to members who are BIPOC, disabled, and/or queer and trans.
