Regis University is committed to creating and maintaining an environment where individual and institutional responsibility combine to promote each student’s complete development. The mission of Student Conduct at Regis University is to encourage students to develop their own sense of personal responsibility and accountability regarding their decision-making and to educate students about the behavioral expectations of the University. Rooted in the Jesuit ideal to promote the development of the whole person, Student Conduct uses fair and formative processes to encourage students to reflect in the spirit of the Regis mission, on how ought they to live.
In order for the University to achieve this goal within an atmosphere where the rights of its members are respected, it is necessary to establish community standards and expectations. These community standards and expectation have been developed to reflect the nature of a student community and the situations inherent in it. Every member of the University community is provided equal rights and benefits in accordance with the expectation that each student has maturity, intelligence and concern for the rights of others. Only when a person demonstrates a lack of cooperation and consideration does the University, take some type of action to address any alleged community wrongs. Behavior judged to be disruptive to the community atmosphere, whether encouraged, attempted, or committed cannot be tolerated.
Purpose of the Student Code of Conduct
The intent in working with students in community standards matters is to enhance their growth in various areas including those of developing a sense of personal responsibility for their own behavior. Accordingly, each student will be treated as an individual within formal community standards procedures. These procedures will be instituted at such time as it becomes apparent that informal procedures are unlikely to produce desired changes in behavior or to increase the ability of the student to live with others in a group situation.
The Student Code of Conduct provided on this webpage apply to all students and supersedes any previous version.
Behaviors that contradict the values of Regis University are addressed by staff in the Dean of Students Office and in Equal Opportunity and Title IX Compliance.
Incidents involving alleged violations of the Student Code of Conduct (alcohol, drugs, harassment, vandalism, theft, etc.), can be reported by emailing Eric Barnes (ebarnes002@regis.edu), Associate Director of Community Standards and Case Management. Please explain the behavior(s), who was involved, and when and where this happened. You will receive a response to your report soon after your email is received.

What to Do When Your Student is Involved in the Student Conduct Process
Sending your student to an institution of higher education is as much of a transition for families as it is for students. The relationship you have with your student will undoubtedly change. Students are expected to make decisions on their own, to learn to resolve conflict independently, and to take responsibility for their actions. At the same time they covet your love, respect your opinion, and generally operate on the values you instilled in them.
So what should you do when your student becomes involved in the campus conduct system? The following section provides some recommendations for family members when they discover that their student is involved in the campus conduct process:
College and university conduct officers take their responsibilities as educators very seriously and do their best to provide a fair and unbiased system for all students. While these professionals understand that involvement in the conduct process may be difficult for students, they do their best to provide them support to effectively handle the situations in which they find themselves.
