The University has the authority and responsibility 排除那些发现自己的个人价值观与大学的价值观不一致的人, and who are unable to respect the University’s values.

Principles of Student Conduct

Respect for Oneself

The University values all of its students and is concerned with their total development. Therefore, it is appropriate to set expectations for personal integrity, which encourage students to appreciate their own talents, to take themselves and their academic pursuits seriously and to enhance the quality of their lives. When an instance of disrespect for self is known, the University will routinely respond to a student engaging in self-destructive behaviors - behaviors which might impede an individual’s ability to enjoy the privileges of education and to fulfill their obligations as an educated leader. Students engaging in such behaviors are also encouraged to seek help from the University community.

Respect for Others

学习的价值之一在于了解知识对社会的贡献. It is expected that students will be open to learning, including learning about and respecting persons and cultures different from their own. Members of the campus community must act out of mutual respect to establish an atmosphere of trust, without which there is no community. Therefore, Jacksonville University expects its members to treat one another with sensitivity, consideration, understanding, tolerance and an active concern for the welfare of others. The University is particularly concerned that its members show respect for others regardless of race, color, age, veteran status, gender, national origin, religion, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity or presence of a disability.

Respect for Property

The mission we share depends upon the responsible use of all property, including such tangible goods as buildings, library materials, equipment and green space. Respect for property also involves helping to foster a well-maintained environment, a sense of security, tranquility and accomplishment. This principle requires students to respect 包括个人财产和机构财产,包括大学社区内外.

Respect for Authority

Authority derives legitimacy from the commitment to act on behalf of the common good. At Jacksonville University, that authority especially resides in the officers of the University, its faculty, administration and staff - each of whom has been charged with responsibilities essential to the orderly operation of the University. They help to define the atmosphere which supports and fosters the University’s common mission. Additionally, these individuals provide structure to preserve the well-being and freedom of community members and an orderly environment in which all can develop. The successful exercise of authority depends in part on the respect it enjoys from the community it serves.

Honesty

Jacksonville University’s educational mission reflects a commitment to the development of the whole person. While at the University, students are expected to demonstrate the personal characteristic of honesty and integrity in all aspects of their campus life, both inside and outside the classroom.

Student Conduct Authority and Responsibility

根据大学章程的授权,校董会已指定 that the President and their designees provide a nurturing and respectful environment for learning and living. Consequently, the University has developed guidelines and regulations for student conduct which will enhance and support that undertaking. Responsibility for the student conduct system is delegated to the Senior Vice President for Student Affairs/Dean of Students, who is the chief student conduct officer of the University. 专业住宿生活工作人员和其他训练有素的管理人员/工作人员 members may be designated as conduct officers, at the discretion of the Senior Vice President for Student Affairs/Dean of Students.

学生行为准则和相关程序适用于所有杰克逊维尔大学 students (whether residing on or off campus). When alleged violations of University 法规或地方,州或联邦法律或法规发生在校外和 如有任何举报,大学保留采取适当措施的权利 action. The Code of Student Conduct and the procedures through which it is implemented will also apply to students studying abroad.

Referral to Conduct Conferences and Hearing Boards

The conduct process is an educational tool that assists in determining responsibility 对于不当行为,并提供了一种方法来将行为重定向到更可接受的模式 to the University community.

Upon receipt of reports or other information which allege a potential violation of the Code of Conduct or other rules and regulations pertaining to students, Division of Student Affairs staff members will conduct a preliminary review of the matter. Students will typically be referred to an informal conduct conference with a staff member from the Division of Student Affairs or other designee. Students may also be referred to a formal hearing before a designated conduct board (as described in section VIII. Conduct Conferences of this Code). The Senior Vice President for Student Affairs/ Dean of Students has full and complete discretion to refer any and all student cases to the hearing venue deemed most appropriate. During periods when timely hearing procedures cannot be conducted, and in instances when the number of cases to be heard cannot be scheduled in a timely manner, alternative procedures may be adopted to efficiently and fairly resolve cases. Students should be advised that conduct violations which disrupt the academic endeavors of the institution, such as those occurring during final exam week, may result in the forfeiture of certain procedural protections in order to resolve the case in a timely manner.

Failure to Participate/Appear

Students summoned to a conduct conference or hearing board are expected to appear as scheduled. Students who fail to appear will be considered in violation of Prohibited Student Conduct Number 5 (Refusal or failure to respond to a request to report to a University administrative office, a conduct conference, or conduct hearing board). A conference or hearing will be held in the student’s absence, and the student will be notified in writing of the sanction(s) imposed.

Closed Proceedings

All preliminary meetings, conduct conferences, and hearings are closed processes open only to Conduct Conference Officers, Hearing Board members, the accused student(s), and relevant called witnesses. The disciplinary process serves an educational rather than legal purpose. Therefore, students are not allowed legal or parental representation during a conduct conference or hearing, unless express written permission to that 负责学生事务的高级副校长/教务长批准了这一决定. Recording the conduct hearing is prohibited by Florida’s two-party consent law (Statute 934.03), as well as the JU Code of Conduct.

Concurrent Civil or Criminal Action

纪律处分可针对学生被指控违反 local, state or federal law which is also a violation of the Code of Conduct and/or other rules and regulations pertaining to students when both violations result from the same factual situation, without regard to pending civil litigation, criminal arrest, and/or prosecution. Conduct proceedings as set forth in this Code may be carried out 在外部民事或刑事诉讼之前、同时进行或之后.

Conduct Conferences

Students accused of alleged violations will typically be referred to an informal conduct conference with a staff member from the Division of Student Affairs or other designee, referred to as the “Conduct Conference Officer”. The Senior Vice President for Student 事务主任或指定人员将决定何时召集大学 Conduct Board to address a conduct case or appeal. Students will be provided with reasonable notice of a scheduled conduct conference. At such a conference, students will be provided with notice of the alleged violation and an account of the alleged misconduct upon which the violation is based. Students will be afforded the opportunity to offer a relevant response to the alleged violation and alleged misconduct. Accused students will be required to answer fully any questions asked of them by the Conduct Conference Officer. During the course of the conference, students are expected to uphold the Code of Conduct and be honest at all times. The preponderance of the evidence 标准(更大的证据权重)将用于确定责任 for violations of the Code of Conduct and/or any other rules and regulations pertaining to students.

If the Conduct Conference Officer does not believe additional investigation is warranted, 将对责任作出决定,并在适用的情况下决定制裁. The Conduct Conference Officer will provide the student with written notification of the outcome of the conduct conference.

University Conduct Board

大学行为委员会有权处理违反大学规章制度的行为 and policies and review conduct appeals. The University Conduct Board is typically comprised of faculty, Student Affairs staff members, and/or students and is chaired by the Senior Vice President for Student Affairs/Dean of Students or their designee. The University Conduct Board is authorized to hear cases which may result in sanctions up to and including expulsion from the University.

Following the assignment of a case to the University Conduct Board, the Senior Vice President for Student Affairs/Dean of Students, or their designee, will provide the accused student with written notice of the alleged violation; an account of the alleged misconduct upon which the violation is based; and the date, time, and location of the scheduled hearing.

The Board will conduct the hearing in a manner consistent with the conduct process of the University. Following the hearing, the Board will provide the recommended finding(s) 并通知主管学生事务的高级副校长/院长 of Students. The Senior Vice President for Student Affairs/Dean of Students will then formally notify the student in writing of the findings and sanction(s) to be imposed.

During the course of a conduct hearing, students are expected to uphold the Code of Conduct and be honest at all times. The accused student will be required to answer fully any questions asked of him/her by members of the hearing board. Additionally, the hearing board will have the right to require the presence and testimony of witnesses relevant to the case. As a condition of their enrollment at Jacksonville University, 学生必须出庭作证,除非有借口 cause. Students who fail to appear after proper notice will also be considered in violation of Prohibited Student Conduct (Refusal or failure to respond to a request to report to a University administrative office, a conduct conference, or conduct hearing board).

During the process of deliberation regarding responsibility and sanctions, Board members will make decisions based on the information available for their review, including, but not limited to, all testimony from witnesses, written statements, and other relevant information. Hearsay may be considered in the deliberation process. The preponderance of the evidence standard (greater weight of the evidence) will be used to determine 违反行为准则和/或任何其他规章制度的责任 pertaining to students. The student will be provided written notification of the hearing outcome. 

Procedures for Reviewing Misconduct by Student Groups

Student groups may be accused of violating the Code of Conduct, and be held responsible either individually or collectively, if violations by those associated with the group received the tacit or overt consent or encouragement of the group or its officers. Possible violations will be referred to the Division of Student Affairs for processing under the provisions of the Code of Conduct. Sanctions for a student group may include revocation of the group’s recognition by the University, as well as other appropriate sanctions.

涉及学生团体的案件通常由高级副校长审理 for Student Affairs Officer/Designee, or a designated student conduct board. Student groups will be accorded the same hearing and appeal procedures provided for students herein, except where noted in the following section.

Procedural Protections for Accused Student Groups

Sanctions

The purpose of disciplinary sanctions is to redirect students’ behaviors toward patterns more acceptable to the University community, if such redirection is feasible; and/or to protect the University community from possible harm or injury. This information is promulgated to assure that students are aware of the potential consequences of their misconduct. Sanctions for misconduct will be determined on a case to case basis, utilizing three main criteria:

  1. The nature of the offense;
  2. The precedent, if any, established at the University for similar offenses; and
  3. The previous disciplinary history of the student, if any, and the student’s attitude and behavior throughout the disciplinary process.

Students should be aware that a history of conduct violations may affect their housing assignments if they are residential students. Students, who fail to comply with University 指令和/或行为制裁,可能对释放他们的 grades, records and/or transcripts.

Such appeal requests must be filed in writing no later than three (3) University business days after receipt of the written results of the conduct conference or hearing. Appeals from students found responsible by the Conduct Conference Officer or hearing board will only be granted with supporting documentation for one or more of the following grounds:

  1. 所施加的制裁与罪行(包括任何考虑)严重不成比例 of the student’s prior offenses).
