University Code of Conduct
In addition to criminal violations, students are expected to adhere to the University Code of Conduct. These policies are different and separate from criminal charges, which are filed by University Police. Whenever criminal charges are filed, a University Conduct officer will hold a hearing to discover if a student has disobeyed conduct policies created by the administration. Even when criminal charges aren’t filed, a conduct hearing is held for the same reasons stated above. Please note that the university administration holds these hearings, assisted by the Dean of Students Office. For more information, please visit theÌý
