Article I.
Student Codes VIOLATION OF LAW AND COLLEGE RULES AND REGUATIONS
Doane College, as a private College, is not required to provide due process in its response to student discipline matters. The policies and procedures below will be followed in a majority of student discipline cases, but the College specifically reserves the right to deviate from said policies and procedures whenever the administration determines that such a deviation is in the best interest of the student or students involved, in the best interests of the effective learning and educational environment to which all Doane students are entitled, or will best protect the safety and well being of the Doane student population. Nothing in these policies or procedures is intended to nor shall it create a contractual agreement between the College and the students as to how student discipline will be handled; rather, Doane retains discretion to protect the best interests of the institution and students in all cases.
College discipline will not be used to duplicate the function of city/ state laws when a student is charged with or convicted of a violation occurring off-campus. The College may, however, impose sanctions for serious misconduct, flagrant disregard for the rights of others or jeopardizing the good reputation of the College as determined by the Vice President for Student Leadership. (Example: possession and/or use of narcotics or hallucinating agents are grounds for immediate suspension.) The College may institute proceedings against a student who violates a federal, state, county or city law on campus that is also a violation of a published College policy.
Generally, College discipline is limited to incidents of student behavior that adversely affect the College community's pursuit of its educational objective or create a substantial interference with the safety and well- being of Doane students. Doane College expects that individuals will respect the rights of others and have regard for preservation of property. The following misconduct, not an all-inclusive code, is subject to College disciplinary action. Each student is held accountable for his/her behavior under the judicial system of the College. Students are expected to be familiar with all College regulations and to abide by them at all times in order to maintain a fair, just and safe living-learning environment.
All forms of dishonesty, including cheating, plagiarism, forgery, know- ingly furnishing false information to College staff, alteration or use of College documents or instruments of identification with intent to de- fraud is not tolerated. This includes the sale of term papers, computer programs, theft of and/or unauthorized use of telephone codes, computer security authorizations, dining hall cards and parking stickers. In addition,
