Student Activation Code

[Leroy Turcios]

TheStudent Code is a collection of rules, regulations, policies, and procedures that apply to, or otherwise directly impact, students at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Although it is not an exhaustive list of such policies, it is the most expansive list available in a single document. It is divided into three articles:

Unless otherwise noted, the rules stated in this Student Code apply to all undergraduate, graduate, and professional students enrolled at the university. All students are expected to review this document, especially Article 1, prior to attending classes so that they may begin their work at Illinois with knowledge both of their rights as students and of their responsibilities as members of the academic community. A printed booklet containing only Article 1 is also available in the Office of the Dean of Students.

The aim of education is the intellectual, personal, social, and ethical development of the individual. The educational process is ideally conducted in an environment that encourages reasoned discourse, intellectual honesty, openness to constructive change, and respect for the rights of all individuals. Self -discipline and a respect for the rights of others in the university community are necessary for the fulfillment of such goals. The Student Code of Conduct is designed to promote this environment at Arizona State University.

The Student Code of Conduct sets forth the standards of conduct expected of students who choose to join the university community. Students who violate these standards will be subject to disciplinary sanctions in order to promote their own personal development, to protect the university community, and to maintain order and stability on campus.

4.1 The professional staff members of the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities shall serve as the Campus Student Code Administrators for the main campus of the University and shall be available to assist any student, student organization, staff member, faculty member, or administrator in understanding and applying the Campus Student Code.

4.2 The Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities shall be the official repository for all conduct-related materials concerning students associated with the main campus of the University.

4.3 Requests for conduct-related materials concerning students associated with the main campus of the University should be made to the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities who is the custodian of such materials.

4.4 The Campus Student Code Administrators and, where appropriate and in cases of Title IX Sexual Harassment, the Title IX Coordinator are charged with the following duties, which shall be undertaken in a manner to ensure the fair administration of this Campus Student Code: (1) Advise any group or individual within the University wishing to bring charges against one or more students; (2) Inform any student against whom charges have been brought of substantive rights, due process rights, and procedures forthcoming, including the right of appeal; (3) Advise the appropriate hearing body and assist in setting up the hearing, being certain that all conditions of the Board of Governors and West Virginia University for such procedures are met; (4) Prepare all papers necessary for the hearing and outcome from the hearing for appropriate dispensation and signature; (5) Assist in the appointment of the hearing bodies and provide and/or coordinate training opportunities as appropriate; (6) Attend hearings, present the facts and information obtained from the investigation on behalf of the University, ask questions of witnesses, and have administrative responsibility for maintaining all confidential files, audio recordings, other electronic media, and documents which result.

5.1 This Campus Student Code shall apply to conduct that occurs on University premises; at University sponsored activities; to conduct that does not occur on University premises but adversely affects or interferes with the educational or orderly operation of the University, its mission, or the pursuit of its objectives; to conduct that does not occur on University premises but, in light of all of the facts and circumstances, would endanger the health, safety, or property of the University, the University Community, or its neighboring communities; and to conduct that occurs on or off of University premises or property which violates federal, state, or local laws, policies of the West Virginia University Board of Governors, institutional or campus rules or regulations, directives of University officials, including failing to observe standards of conduct which are appropriate for an academic institution.

5.1.1 While this Campus Student Code applies to all conduct as set forth above, only that which falls under Title IX jurisdiction, as set forth in WVU BOG Rule 1.6, will be subject to the requirements of Section 12.

5.1.2 Non-Title IX Sexual Harassment and any other Rule 1.6 Misconduct, while not subject to the requirements of Section 12, will be addressed by this Code subject to the requirements of Section 11.

5.3 This Student Conduct Code shall apply to all students enrolled in undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs; and to all student organizations, as further outlined in Section 15. Academic and professional standards of conduct will also apply to students enrolled in programs that have adopted such standards, i.e., all students are subject to this Campus Student Code and some students may be concurrently subject to additional standards as determined by the respective Colleges, Schools, and academic programs.

All students of the University and, to the extent applicable, all student organizations are expected and required to obey federal, state, and local laws, to comply with the policies of the West Virginia University Board of Governors, with institutional or campus rules and regulations, with directives issued by any University official, and to observe standards of conduct appropriate for an academic institution.

bb) False Statements. Making a materially false statement in bad faith in the course of a grievance proceeding under Rule 1.6 or this Code is prohibited., A determination regarding responsibility, alone, is not sufficient to conclude that any party made a materially false statement in bad faith.

d) Probation: A written reprimand for prohibited conduct that specifies a designated period of time and includes the probability of more severe disciplinary sanctions if, during the designated probationary period, the student violates any applicable law or fails to comply with the policies of the West Virginia University Board of Governors, with institutional or campus rules and regulations or with directives issued by any University official acting in the course of his or her authorized duties.

e) Warning: A notice in writing to the student that the student is violating or has violated Board of Governors policies, institutional rules and regulations, or the Campus Student Code, and that any further prohibited conduct may result in more severe disciplinary action.

g) Restitution: Students may be required to make payment to the University or to other persons, groups, or organizations for loss, damage, or injury incurred as a result of a violation of any Campus Student Code. This may take the form of appropriate service and/or monetary or material replacement. Once restitution is satisfied, the student must provide documentation to the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities.

h) Revocation: Admission to the University may be revoked for a violation of the Code if the violation was committed before the student arrives on campus. Likewise, a degree awarded from the University may be revoked for a violation of the Code if the violation was committed before the student graduates.

i) Other Sanctions: Other sanctions may be imposed instead of or in addition to those specified. For example, students may be subject to dismissal from University housing for disciplinary violations which occur in the residence halls. Likewise, community service, educational classes, fines (if such fines are established by the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities), and other work or research projects may also be assigned.

j) No Contact Order: Students may be issued a permanent no contact order, which is a directive to refrain from any intentional contact, whether direct or indirect, with one or more designated persons or group(s) through any means, including, but not limited to, personal contact, e-mail, telephone, social media or third parties.

7.3 Repeated or aggravated violations of any section of this Campus Student Code may also result in expulsion or suspension or in the imposition of such lesser penalties as may be appropriate.

7.5 Misconduct, other than constitutionally protected expression, motivated by bias based on race, color, national origin, ancestry, age, physical or mental disability, marital or family status, pregnancy, veteran status, service in the uniformed services (as defined in state and federal law), religion, creed, sex, sexual orientation, genetic information, gender identity, or gender expression should be considered an aggravating factor for sanctioning.

8.1 Imposition of Interim or Supportive Measures: When the alleged actions of a student threaten the operations or safety of the University or when the University must take action to assist students pending the outcome of a matter, interim or supportive measures may be put into place. These measures are administrative directives that are intended to ensure the safety of the University and prevent a situation from escalating; they are not disciplinary in nature. Interim or supportive measures may be made at any point after a referral is received and may include, but are not limited to:
