A student from Carleton University has been found to have cheated on an exam. The University's Senate has decided to remove the student from their program as a result. Before the decision was made, the student was not provided with an opportunity to make submissions to the Senate. The student is wondering whether the decision-making process was a fair one. The University Senate Decisions Act, the home statute, says nothing about letting students make submissions. Describe to the student what principles are relevant to finding out whether they were entitled to be heard by the Senate.

Accurately identify the applicable legal principles and presenting them in a clear and concise manner.
