Purpose of the Judicial Board

The rulings reached by the IFC Judicial Board are superseded by the rulings of the Florida State University’s Department of Student Conduct and Community Standards, as well as the rulings of any local, state, and federal courts.

Philosophy of the Judicial Board

The Judicial Board is put in place in order to promote and support peer-to-peer governance and accountability across all 20 IFC member and associate member organizations.
