Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards
The Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards supports the University’s dedication to student success and its educational purposes and goals by publishing, enforcing, drafting, and interpreting standards of student behavior and related policies and procedures, facilitating student and community developmental and ethical growth opportunities that promote personal integrity, civility, self-responsibility, citizenship, and appreciation for diversity, working to maintain a safe and productive environment supporting the University’s educational purpose and the students’ educational goals, and promoting the privileges and responsibilities associated with a student’s University affiliation.
