Mission Statement   The Drexel University Student Conduct process will facilitate the social, ethical and intellectual development of students by adjudicating violations of the Student Code of Conduct. As such, the University Conduct process functions as an aspect of the University's educational process. The goals of the Conduct process are: to promote a campus environment that supports the overall educational mission of the University; to protect the University community from disruption and harm; to encourage appropriate standards of individual and group behavior; to foster ethical values and civic virtues to foster personal learning and growth while at the same time holding individuals and groups accountable to the standards of expectations established by the Code of Conduct. The Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards fulfills its mission by providing programs and services that: Develop, disseminate, interpret, and enforce campus rules and regulations. Teach students about appropriate behaviors and the consequences for unacceptable and/or inappropriate behaviors through the use of critical thinking skills. Intervene effectively when behavior violates the Code of Conduct. Offer educational and leadership opportunities for students who participate in the operation of the Student Conduct process.   Statement of Philosophy and Purpose   Drexel University expects that all students as well as student organizations will conduct themselves responsibly and in a manner that reflects favorably upon themselves and the University. When a student or organization does not act responsibly and violates the University policies, rules, regulations, or standards of conduct, formal disciplinary action may result. The Conduct process reflects the University's concern that students and organizations maintain high standards. The Conduct process attempts to foster personal learning and growth, while at the same time holding individuals and groups accountable for inappropriate behavior.
