Student Conduct
Ultimate authority for student discipline
is vested in the Board of Trustees of the University and operational
authority is delegated through the President of the University to
the Vice President for Student Affairs/Dean of Students for matters
falling under the Non-Academic Code of Student Conduct and to
the Vice President for Academic Affairs for matters related to
academic conduct. Students and organizations are expected and
will be encouraged to manage their individual and group behaviors,
however, the Vice President of Student Affairs charges the professional
Student Affairs staff with responsibility to exercise jurisdiction
when the best interests of the University may be served and/or when
students fail or delay unnecessarily in carrying out their delegated
roles and responsibilities.
Due to the complexity of the concept of community
responsibility and accountability, and the nature of innovation
and human behavior, a complete list of prohibited behaviors would
be impossible to provide. Therefore, the Code
of Student Conduct sets out specific standards and expectations
as examples, though they are not intended to be exhaustive in
scope nor detail. Rather, students should know that violation
of or attempts to violate the behavioral guidelines specifically
detailed or implied herein - whether through verbal, written,
electronic or other means - or knowingly (including when one should
reasonably have known) creating a situation through which a violation
will occur, will subject a student to discipline under the Code.
If you have questions about the campus judicial
system, the Code
of Student Conduct, or the Behavior Education process on campus,
please contact the Student Life Office. The staff members are
happy to discuss your questions.
Community Service Sanctions: If you have received community service hours as part of your judicial sanction then you are responsible for completing those hours on time and turning in your hours to Anthony Polito (apolito@muskingum.edu).
