On behalf of the Office of Student Standards, we would like to wish all students the
best during this academic year. Often I am asked, "What actually is Student
Standards and my role pertaining to it?" Well, student standards are the rules
and/or polices that the University has established to govern student behavior and
conduct for both on and off campus. Currently, there are 21 of these standards of
behavior which are located in our Student Handbook, the Pilot, and can be found on
this site. When a student has violated one of these polices or it is alleged that they
may have, they are required to meet with one of our judicial staff members in order
to resolve the matter. This could result in a student being placed on one of our
disciplinary sanctions. Through our sanctions, we attempt to educate and help
students make better decisions and choices in the future. However, there are times
when we must take a punitive approach, which could result in a student's
separation from the University.
My role as director is to oversee the process, deal with the more severe incidents
and update and /or change procedures as needed. I'm also the person who can
answer any questions or concerns that you may have regarding any aspect of our
Student Code of Conduct or any of our policies and/or procedures. So if you have
any questions after visiting our site, please feel free to contact me.
Take care and good luck...
