The '''Greek Judicial Board''', casually known as the '''J-Board''', is a committee of fraternity brothers that reviews rule violations and assigned punishments for them (which is submits to [[Student Affairs]] for approval. It falls under the [[Interfraternity Council]].

According to the [[Student Affairs]] website, the J-Board exemplifies "self-governance"<ref>http://www.studentaffairs.columbia.edu/resprograms/fraternity_sorority</ref>. This is extremely true, since the board's meetings are closed. And though a merry-go-round of fraternity brothers judging one another and being judged by one another might lead one observer to suspect corruption, shut up, it's not a big deal. After all, it is "an important part of our vibrant Greek community"<ref>http://cmssites.theginsystem.com/websites/IFC_CU/?app=content&action=view&id=7</ref>.

==History==

After the [[Brownstone Review Committee]] decided not to award [[AEPi]] a brownstone, J-Board chairman Matthew Renick sent a hot-headed email to, well, everyone involved, announcing his resignation <ref>http://bwog.com/2012/12/03/chairman-of-greek-judicial-board-resigns/</ref>.

When the [[ZBT hazing scandal]] went down, the J-Board recommended that [[ZBT]] lose its charter (and thereby lose Columbia recognition). This recommendation was reversed by [[Kevin Shollenberger]].

When the [[Pike pledge scavenger hunt]] was leaked to [[Bwog]], the J-Board reviewed the case in a closed meeting, the decision of which was never released.
