Conduct Goals and Standards
It is the intention of UJ Standards of Conduct to clarify acceptable standards of behavior essential to the university’s educational mission and its community life. While the code is comprehensive and applicable to all students, it is not written with the specificity of a criminal statute, it is not an exhaustive attempt to codify every possible type of problematic behavior, and it is not a contract between the University and its students. Each student will be treated as an individual within the disciplinary process, with the goal of enhancing his/her growth in various areas, including those of developing responsibility for discipline and behavior. Because of the individual nature of students, their behaviors, and the particular circumstances involved, the University may not in every situation be able to follow this code precisely and reserves the right to deviate from the policies and statements as deemed necessary from time to time.
