Student Misconduct

• Please familiarize yourself with the Student Conduct Code so you are in a position to judge correctly if a student should be reported for a violation.
• If you determine that a student should be reported for a violation of the Student Conduct Code, fill out the Student Conduct Incident Report Form. Send one copy to Student Affairs and one copy to the Urban Studies office (attn: Brian Coffey). Be sure to put the information in a sealed envelope and mark it confidential. Please document your claim with any written material that you deem appropriate. If the situation requires immediate response, please contact Campus Safety at 253-692-4416.
