Both the complainant and the alleged offender shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to appear and be heard before the Board of Directors or such special committee as the Board shall appoint to investigate, hear evidence and report to the Board. The Board of Directors, by a two-thirds vote of all its members, may expel, or impose lesser disciplinary action which the Board may determine to be appropriate under the circumstances , against the offender for conduct or activity found by the Board to be detrimental or prejudicial to the general college fraternity system or the Conference. Lesser disciplinary action may include, but is not limited to, fines, public censure, or a period of suspension of voting rights.
