The vast majority of concerns, issues, or grievances of SIS students are handled through informal channels. Specific channels for grievance include the Executive Director. In addition, students can contact the SIS office to discuss their situation and options (4th floor Enterprise Hall, 703-993-1436). Our informal processes are usually problem-solving processes where tools or options are suggested to address issues.

A grievance is a written complaint or concern about a medical provider, HNFS or the TRICARE program in general. Authorization appeals, claims appeals and claim review issues are separate from grievances. The following are examples of grievances:


Anyone can file a grievance; however, if the grievance is about someone other than the person who filed the grievance, HNFS may not be able to give a full response without an Authorization for Disclosure of Medical or Dental Information form on file. This generally applies to spouses and parents of adult children submitting grievances about their spouse or adult child.


A grievance can have up to four phases: (1) the management resolution steps; (2) qualification for hearing; (3) hearing; and (4) review of the hearing decision. Not all grievances are qualified for hearing. For example, under the grievance statues, grievancesthat relate solely to layoffs, transfers, assignments, or the content of personnel policies cannot proceed to a hearing. On the other hand, some issues are automatically qualified for hearing, such as formal discipline or dismissal for unsatisfactoryperformance. Attorneys serving as Administrative Hearing Officers conduct hearings in qualifying grievances.


Even if your concern is about an issue that cannot be qualified for hearing, many grievances result in resolution during the management steps, without a grievance hearing. For more information regarding the grievance process contact the EDR AdviceLineat 1-888-23-ADVICE (1-888-232-3842).


A potential grievant is encouraged to contact the chair of the Faculty Senate to determine whether the grievance would fall under Section A or Section B. If the chair of the Faculty Senate position is vacant then the Senate Executive Committee shall appoint another current member of the Senate Executive Committee to fulfill all duties ascribed to the chair of the Faculty Senate in Part IV, Chapter 2 of the Faculty Manual related to new or pending grievances. The individual appointed will retain their current Executive Committee title. This appointment shall remain in force only until such time as a new chair of the Faculty Senate is duly elected by a quorum of the voting members of the Senate.


Such election shall be held as soon as possible, but not more than ninety (90) calendar days after the appointment is made. After the Chair is elected, all new and pending grievances will be handled by the newly elected Chair of the Faculty Senate.


The Chair of the Faculty Senate is the initial point of contact for the grievant. The Reappointment, Tenure, and Promotion Grievance Process utilizes ad hoc committees appointed to handle individual grievances. The Reappointment, Tenure, and Promotion Grievance Process is headed by the Process Chair who serves a two-year term and is appointed by the chair of the Faculty Senate in consultation with, and with the concurrence of, the Provost. The Process Chair, who must be tenured and hold the rank of Professor, is the reference point for the filing of Type A grievances and serves as a voting member of all ad hoc faculty grievance committees. If the Process Chair believes that a potential conflict of interest exists with respect to a particular grievance, a substitute Process Chair will be appointed through the same process.


Every effort should be made to resolve grievances informally between the student and the faculty member involved or with the assistance of the graduate adviser, Graduate Studies Committee chair or department chair. If the grievance cannot be resolved informally, students have recourse to formal grievance procedures.


Students filing grievances are protected from program recrimination. Due process in the conduct of a formal grievance may require an extended review period. The formal grievance process is outlined in the Handbook of Operating Procedures.


Employment grievances for teaching assistants and assistant instructors are outlined in the Handbook of Operating Procedures. There is also a process for handling employment disputes involving graduate research assistants. There is no formal grievance process for other academic and non-academic positions. Students in those positions should try to resolve any employment issues within their department, first with their supervisor and then with their department director or chair, vice president or dean as appropriate.
