The Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards (SCCS) is committed to working with students, faculty, and staff in an effort to create a campus community of integrity and respect. Services include administration of the Student Conduct Code and the conduct process, educational sanctioning and programming, and case consultation(s) with student, families, faculty, and staff.

SCCS will not contact you directly if your student is charged with a violation of the Student Conduct Code. However, your student will be encouraged to speak with you about the incident and to include you in the student conduct process. SCCS will notify you in writing if your student is under the age of 21 and is found responsible for violating any provision/ section of the university Drug and Alcohol Policy.

OSCCS will be able to share specific case information with you if your student has waived their FERPA rights. If the FERPA rights have not been waived, the office staff will be able to speak with you about disciplinary procedures but will not be able to share specific case information with you.

Family members are welcome to participate in the student conduct process and attend all associated hearings and meetings associated as personal advisors/support for your student at your student’s request.
