Student Misconduct

• Please familiarize yourself with the Student Conduct Code so you are in a position to judge correctly if a student should be reported for a violation.
• If you determine that a student should be reported for a violation of the Student Conduct Code, fill out the Student Conduct Incident Report Form. Send one copy to the Student Affairs Office and one copy to the Urban Studies office (attn: Brian Coffey). Be sure to put the information in a sealed envelope and mark it confidential. Please document your claim with any written material that you deem appropriate. If the situation requires immediate response, please contact Campus Safety at 253-692-4416. If the situation is a medical, fire or police emergency, please call 911.
