Student Conduct and Behavior Policies are an institution’s rules on how students interact with classmates, faculty and staff, and on the disciplinary actions that may follow unacceptable behavior.
What the catalog says
The catalog’s definition: “Disruptive behavior is a style of interaction with students, faculty, staff or others that interferes with student learning and causes distress among other students and faculty and affects overall morale within the learning environment.”
Disruptive behavior, regardless of who initiates it, consists of rude language and/or sarcasm (written or verbal); threatening mannerisms (verbal or non-verbal); physical threats and abuse.
“Behavior that is perceived as disruptive, offensive, and/or threatening interferes with the learning of other students and impedes the delivery of our program of learning.”
On response, the catalog states: “The Campus President will decide the necessary response on a case-by-case basis and may impose disciplinary actions that may include formal warning, probation, suspension and/or termination.”
