Those working within the conduct system balance the
individual needs of students with the expectations set by the university to
provide a safe community. The university, through authority given to it by its
Board of Governors, is responsible for communicating behavioral expectations to
students and the consequences for violating standards. This Code of Student
Conduct describes the behaviors that are inconsistent with university values;
it outlines procedures to respond to such behaviors; and it suggests possible
sanctions and interventions that are intended to educate and safeguard members
of the university community.
