Shared Responsibility

The trustees, faculty and administration of The University of Tampa are determined that this campus community be a place of shared responsibility, personal freedom and collective safety and harmony. They are eager to make every effort to ensure the best possible quality of life for everyone at the University. Accordingly, it is imperative that the University be able to remove from the campus any person or any circumstance that is detrimental to the University community.

As members of the Student Government General Assembly and residence hall councils, students participate in determining the specific standards of conduct.

In all conduct situations, students are afforded appropriate procedures; in return, students are responsible for cooperating fully with the student conduct process. The conduct system is carefully structured to ensure the well-being of the community at large while focusing on the education of the individual student. Representation on the various conduct boards balances authority from all University constituencies: students, primarily, as well as faculty and staff.
