The Judicial Board (more commonly known as JBoard) is a collection of TAMS students that serve in a section of the disciplinary system within TAMS. Each board reviews level one documentations and potentially reduces the number of points assigned. JBoard serves to uphold the TAMS Student Handbook and other official policies within the context of TAMS and its students. We are made up of juniors and seniors who are appointed at the beginning of the year to provide a jury of peers who act as a bridge between the student body and the TAMS administration. We also host panels consisting of lawyers and law students to answer any questions about this field.

Disciplinary Points

If

Docks that JBoard Can Review (Level 1)

An RA can initially assign 10-20 points for a Level 1 documentation; JBoard helps reduce that number by increments of five. Don't worry about having five or ten points on your record. You only start losing privileges and/or honorsnspection standards within 24 hours of warning

  • Roughhousing (i.e. running in the halls, letting doors slam)
  • Conduct unbecoming (i.e. cursing)
  • Missing mandatory meetings (i.e. wing meetings)
  • Not obliging room time

Docks that JBoard Cannot Review (Levels 2-5)

Sorry, JB can't help you here! This list is NOT comprehensive.

  • Being more than 15 minutes late to curfew (Level 2-4)
  • Violation of PDA policies aught being at Fry Street past 9 PM (Level 3)
  • Harassment (Level 3-5)
  • Possessing and/or consuming tobacco products (Level 4)
  • Hosting or hiding an unregistered overnight guest (Level 4)
  • Violation of computer policy (Levelstances and paraphernalia (Level 5)
  • Breaking laws other than traffic violatios (Level 5)

Law Series

The JBoard Law Series was initiated in Fall of 2020, due to the lack of a student life disciplinary system in a no-McConnell-shenanigans lifestyle. It consists of a series of webinars starring alumni and guest speakers experienced with the field of law for those of us TAMSters considering law as a career path.

Execs and Board

The JBoard executives aren't assigned any roles of a typical club. Each executive is responsible for selecting incoming board members for the school year, leading JBoard hearings, planning info sessions, and tracking community service hours for board members.
