2023-2024 Student Handbook

Article III: Jurisdiction

The Student Code of Conduct applies to conduct that occurs on College premises and at College sponsored activities, and to off-campus conduct that adversely affects the College community or the pursuit of its objectives. Each student is responsible for his/her conduct from the time of application for admission through the actual awarding of a degree, inclusive of: times before classes begin or after classes end, during the academic year, and during periods between terms of enrollment (e.g., winter break). Students are also responsible for conduct discovered after a degree is awarded, and Student Code of Conduct shall apply to a student’s conduct even if the student withdraws or graduates from school while a disciplinary matter is pending. The Dean of Students or designee shall decide whether the Student Code of Conduct shall be applied to conduct occurring off campus, on a case-by-case basis, at their sole discretion.
