Off-Campus Misconduct Policy

The Code applies to each Student for behavior that occurs while they are a student, regardless of when the behavior is reported.

The Code applies to all activities on University Premises or University-supported virtual platforms, and during any University Sponsored Activity or Student Organization events and activities, regardless of location. The University may apply the Code to behavior that occurs elsewhere, including to behavior conducted online or through an electronic medium, when the University can demonstrate a clear and distinct interest, including when the behavior:

• Causes substantial disruption to the University community or any of its members,
• Involves academic work or any University records, documents, or identifications,
• Indicates the student or student organization may present a danger or threat to the health or safety or themselves or others, or
• Constitutes a violation of local, state, or federal law.

If you are involved in a situation off campus that may violate the Code and it is reported to the Office of Student Accountability and Conflict Response, the allegation will be reviewed, and you may be held accountable in the student conduct process in addition to any court proceedings.
