The Office of Community Standards promotes personal attitudes and behaviors that are in concert with the values rooted in our Jesuit tradition. Students should respect the rights of all members of the University community and share in the responsibility of sustaining an educational environment by becoming familiar with the policies and procedures outlined in the Student Handbook and on this website. As an office, we encourage students to take ownership of their decisions and accept the consequences (both positive and negative). In doing so, we create an environment where all students can learn, grow, and become ethical leaders in their chosen fields.
What Should Be Done if Witnessing a Dangerous Situation?
Students are expected to immediately report conduct or activity which poses a danger to the community or its members. This is most important in medical emergencies due to alcohol and/or drug use. Students should not hesitate to seek help because of fear of disciplinary action. The welfare of everyone in this community is paramount, and Saint Joseph's University encourages students to offer help and assistance to others in need. In most circumstances, the help seeker will not be charged with a policy violation under the University Community Standards system.
