The NTSO conducts regular meetings
so that non-traditional students have a way to connect with each
other and to share the experience of being the only "old"
person in class, etc. |
We try to do a potluck

meeting. |

The Legal Services office
provides legal advice and information in times of immediate need as
well as preventative education and counseling in order to avoid
unnecessary litigation. The attorney provides an initial consultation
in all situations to all qualified full-time undergraduate students
at no cost. The goal of the office is to provide legal advice and
education to students in situations where they would be unlikely to
obtain those services or access. Furthermore, one of the goals of the
service is to educate students about their rights and their
responsibilities as students and as citizens. Legal services will
provide representation in those situations enumerated below and
whenever possible without detracting from the necessity of being
available to all covered students.
Availability of
Services Defined
All students who pay a student activity
fee are eligible for an initial legal consultation. After
consultation the student will be offered free services for civil
matters of less than $5,000.00 in dispute and violation level
offenses. All matters requiring courtroom appearances must be within
a 40-mile radius of Durham. The attorney may be available for other
services that are consistent with the goals of the office and not
unduly time consuming.
Representation in these and other
areas may be limited by conflicts, such as student versus student
disputes. Representation or advice regarding actions against the
university is prohibited and the student will be referred to private
counsel at their own expense. Additionally, students are not entitled
to advice or representation on intra-university disciplinary matters
often referred to as the judicial board. The attorney may decline any
representation that would require more than 20 hours of legal work or
which is without merit. The purpose of the exclusion is to ensure
that the attorney is available to all students and not involved in
protracted or unmeritorious litigation on behalf of a single student.
Some of the legal issues that JOANNE may be able to
address for you include housing disputes, problems with leases etc
and child support/custody litigations.

*** students' rights, rules and repsonsibilities ***
"I was enrolled at UNH before but my GPA was less
then perfect. Now that I am back can I still get credit for the
classes without having the poor grades count against me?"
07.3(as) Educational Reprieve Upon petition to the Academic
Standards and Advising Committee, a former matriculated UNH student
who has taken no courses for five or more consecutive years may,
prior to readmission to UNH, request "educational reprieve."
The procedure permits retention of the previous credit from all
courses in which grades of C- or better were earned; but the former
cumultaive garde-point average, although retained for informational
purposes on the academic record, will not be used. A new grade-point
average will be started upon readmission. Graduation honors will be
based on the restarted grade-point average, provided a minimum of 64
graded semester hours (32 graded hours in an associate degree
program) has been completed at the University subsequent to the
reprieve. The notation "educational reprieve" will be
written on the student's academic record.
