Student Conduct:
The College reserves the right to inform parents or guardians of a student when:
- That student’s behavior has been the cause of a disturbance to others on or off campus
- That student’s behavior has been the cause of a disruption of other students’ education
- That student’s behavior caused or had the potential to cause harm to persons or property
- That student’s behavior led to an arrest in which the student was taken into custody
- That student’s behavior resulted or could have resulted in the student being removed from study abroad program
