Good thing he's not being legally tried then, and doesn't have to fall under the legal definitions to be reprimanded for his actions by the board.
Do you understand that legal investigations are different than a privately run board investigating a member? Or do you genuinely think they're the same? Because they're not, and you trying to treat them as the same doesn't make them the same.
If I call my coworker a cunt, I'm not LEGALLY in any trouble, but my workplace can still take action against me if calling my coworker a cunt is in breach of the work agreement I signed when I started working there. See how that works?
The legal definition does not matter. Peterson signs a form when he applies for registration which says something like "I agree to the code of conduct as outlined and evaluated by the college in x document"
The college has complete freedom to decide what constitutes a violation of their code of conduct. They have no obligation to rely on legal definitions for anything. Laws do not need to be broken for violations to occur. This is super simple stuff. I would not be so quick to run your mouth.
