The Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards

Mission Statement

The Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards promotes student success by upholding the Student Code of Conduct, advocating for community standards, and maintaining a fair conduct system that addresses the diverse needs of the individual and community. The Office fosters student development through the values of honesty, mutual respect, responsibility and integrity.

Reporting an Incident

You can report a general student conduct incident on our online reporting form here. Please note that this form is not for reporting alleged academic integrity violations.

For academic integrity violations, you can request a prior records check here, and then make a report here.

For concerns of Organizational Misconduct or Hazing, please use our reporting form HERE.

For concerns regarding a student’s mental health or behavior that would not be addressed in the Code of Conduct, review the list of concerning behaviors on the Student Assistance and Intervention Team’s webpage, and consider submitting a SAIT referral.
