The Division of Student Affairs would like to announce the approved name change of the Office of Student Conduct to Office of Student Rights & Responsibilities.

The Office of Student Rights & Responsibilities assists students, faculty and staff with the conduct code and policy enforcement, serves as a resource to the campus community surrounding student conflict resolution, and also provides an extensive outreach program that includes presentations such as academic integrity and preventing academic misconduct, conflict resolution, and managing disruptive behavior. Our goal is to foster an environment where students have an opportunity to be accountable for their behavior and continue their education in a supportive atmosphere.

In discussions over the past few years, it was generally agreed upon that “Student Rights & Responsibilities” was a more accurate and inclusive name to reflect the mission and objectives of the office. In general sharing and seeking feedback from various populations of the community (students, staff and faculty), it has been a clear consensus that they also felt this was a more welcoming and accurate name for the office.
