Student Conduct
Students are expected to conduct themselves in a way that respects the cooperative standards of the Excelsior community and accords with the University’s educational mission. This includes obeying federal, state, and local laws as well as University policies. Not knowing or understanding these standards and policies is not a defense or excuse. Any non-academic, student behavioral conduct incident reports filed are confidential and will only be shared with those involved in the case.

- Disruptive behavior
- Harassment (non-sexual)

- Copyright infringement
