Students participating in the University’s intercollegiate athletic programs are also subject to the Athletic Department’s Code of Conduct. Details of the hearing processes are contained in the Student Conduct Code - Policies and Procedures Manual which contains a detailed explanation and description of institutional disciplinary philosophy, rules and regulations. Decisions involving academic infractions, appeals, etc., must follow the procedures established by the academic division of the University.

Any student or student organization found to have committed or to have attempted to commit the following misconduct is subject to disciplinary sanction: 1) Academic dishonesty including but not limited to: cheating, plagiarism, unauthorized possession or disposition of academic materials, falsification, or facilitation of acts of dishonesty. Specific procedures for cases of academic dishonesty are also described in the Academic Policies in the General Catalog, the Faculty Handbook, or the Honor Code of the Nursing Program as applicable. 2) Knowingly furnishing false information to any University official, faculty member, office, or organization or intentionally initiating or causing to be initiated any false report, warning or threat of fire, explosion, or other emergency. 3) Forgery, altercation, misuse, mutilation, or unauthorized removal of any University document, record, identification, educational material, or property. 4) Disruption or obstruction of teaching, classroom or other educational interactions, research, administration or disciplinary proceedings, or participation in an activity that disrupts normal University activities, and/or threatens property or bodily harm or intentionally interferes with the right of access to University facilities or freedom of movement of any person on campus. 5) Engaging in behavior or activities that obstruct the right of free speech or expression of any person on campus.
