However, a student organization shall not have the right to be represented by a licensed attorney or nonattorney advocate if the constituent institution has implemented a "Student Honor Court" which is fully staffed by students to address such violations.
(c) Nothing in this section shall be construed to create a right to be represented at a disciplinary proceeding at public expense.
