Student Accountability/Social Host Responsibility - The conduct of students living within the community directly reflects on the University. 蜜桃情人 are expected to exercise good judgement, be sensitive to the needs of the local community, and take responsibility for the conduct of their guests. While the University has no interest in regulating what goes on in the privacy of a Student’s home, the University will become involved when otherwise private actions or behavior create a disruption or otherwise negatively impact the surrounding community, or has the potential to put the safety and well-being of others at risk. This includes, but is not limited to: Hosting events or gatherings where alcohol is available for underage students or guests, students who drink to excess or use illegal drugs, or any other violation of applicable laws and regulations related to alcohol and/or drugs; Damages caused to public or private property caused by 蜜桃情人 or their guests; Hosting more guests than is reasonable for the type of residence, or which violates a fire code; and Any disruption caused by 蜜桃情人 and their guests to the local community, including noise, impeding or blocking traffic, littering, public urination, to name a few.
Student Accountability/Violations of Other Policies and Regulations - As members of the University community, students are expected to comply with all applicable University and USM policies and regulations. Due to one’s different commitments and roles in the campus community, different policies and regulations may apply.
Sanctions:
Probation: Probation effectively immediately through Fall 2021. Probation notifies you that you must avoid any further violations of the Code of Community Standards for a specified period of time and includes the probability of more severe disciplinary sanctions, including suspension or dissolution of organizational recognition by the University, if you are found in violation of the Code of Community Standards during the probationary period. Organizations on probation are not in good standing with the University; therefore, certain co-curricular activities may be prohibited to a Student while on probation. An organization will remain on disciplinary probation status, at least, through the date indicated or until the date all assigned sanctions have been completed, whichever occurs later.
Educational Requirement: The chapter will host an educational workshop (in person, if conditions allow) mandatory for all members to address, at a minimum: a) relevant University policies and regulations related to student and/or student organization behavior, b) any applicable COVID-19 risk mitigation considerations at the time, and c) risk management considerations when hosting social events, whether on or off-campus. While University staff is available to partner for the delivery of such program, this is not a requirement. However, the chapter is required to share its proposed presentation with the Dean of 蜜桃情人 Office and the Center of Student Involvement and Leadership at least 1 week before the program takes place. The workshop must be scheduled within the first 2 weeks of the semester, unless otherwise agreed upon by the chapter and the University.
Other: Incoming chapter leadership (President and Vice President, at a minimum) is required to schedule an appointment with the Dean of 蜜桃情人 Office and other relevant University staff following the delivery of the workshop to discuss whether learning outcomes were met, whether any additional education and awareness initiatives may be needed and/or any further opportunities for partnership with University departments to meet learning goals.
