Communities
establish standards in order to ensure that they are able to fulfill
their mission and keep their members from harm. The University Code of
Student Conduct (referred to as "the code" in the remainder of this
summary) defines those kinds of behavior that violate the standards of
the Rutgers University community and also provides the mechanism for
addressing alleged violations. In doing so, the code protects the
rights of those accused of offenses (referred to as "respondents" in
the remainder of this summary) by providing due process while also
protecting victims of those offenses and the university community as a
whole.
