The University and the Public Law
- The University is not a sanctuary from public law and does not promote or condone unlawful behavior. The University cooperates with law enforcement authorities in a manner consistent with its legal duties and the interests of the University community.
- Students under prosecution for violation of public law may also be subject to University judicial proceedings, which are independent of those under public law. The University may take prompt action under its own procedures regardless of whether the public officials have disposed of the case or what disposition they make.
- Students may be subject to the University conduct system for allegations of unlawful conduct that occurs on University property, or that occurs off campus if such off campus conduct is associated with a University activity or raises considerable concerns that the individual or group poses a threat to the safety or welfare of the University community.
