Student Code of Conduct
The College’s Student Handbook and Student Conduct Code applies equally to behavior that occurs on or off College property, including while studying abroad. Therefore, any reported incident and subsequent disciplinary proceeding may proceed, as outlined in the Student Conduct Code and Sexual and Relationship Conduct Policy, even if any party is studying abroad. Any sanction(s) as a result of a disciplinary proceeding may result in immediate action(s), including but not limited to suspension or expulsion that can result in an immediate removal from a study abroad program at the student’s expense and lost academic credit(s).
Students enrolled in study-travel classes and study abroad programs are also still bound by the Code of Academic Integrity even though classes are held off campus. Students must also agree to abide by the academic and behavioral standards delineated in the course instructor’s syllabus. Instructors have the right to dismiss any student from the study-travel class for non-compliance with policies and to fail the student for the course. Students will be responsible for expenses if dismissed from the class.
Note that alcohol consumption by anyone under the age of 21 will be considered a violation of the Student Code of Conduct, no matter the legal drinking age in the host country.
