Student Conduct and Discipline

A student’s continued enrollment at the College is dependent upon his/her behavior. The awarding of academic credits and recognition and the conferring of degrees, certificates, and awards are subject to the academic and judicial authorities of the College. A student’s attendance may be terminated, and he/she may, following due process, be dismissed from the College at any time and on any grounds deemed advisable by the Administration.

Student conduct, both on and off campus, of a nature which would reflect discredit on the student and/or on the College, may result in disciplinary action by the College. Persons are subject to the laws of the State regardless of their student status and are subject to College discipline when the College’s interests as an academic community are distinctly and clearly involved.

The judicial process will be the responsibility of the Vice President of Student and Community Affairs and the Judicial Committee. The Vice President may take administrative disciplinary action when it is deemed necessary to ensure the safety of students, faculty, or staff and/or the continuation of the educational process. The final judicial authority of the College is vested in the President.
