View the Student Code of Conduct

OSA expects students and advisors as well as its own staff to behave according to the values and expectations set forth by the Code at all club functions whether the event is on or off campus.

Because student leaders, advisors and OSA staff act as representatives of the college, they are often viewed as role models who are held at a higher standard and have a responsibility to uphold that standard and be aware of the leadership roles they hold.

Since clubs are required to have a Constitution on file with OSA at the time of renewal or chartering, a section of Standards of Behavior should be included.  Each club is encouraged to have a section in their Constitution that speaks to expected behavior of individuals within the club and the process for addressing inappropriate behavior of leaders and members.

It is recommended that the club establish procedures for a first offense with subsequent offenses being sent to the Dean of Student Development for referral to the judicial process of the Code of Conduct.

If Club Advisors or student leaders require assistance in handling violations of the Code of Conduct, staff of OSA is available to help.

Please note that alcohol should not be a part of any on or off campus college event!
