Feedback sought on draft edits to the Student Conduct Code

Western’s Student Conduct Code is in the process of being reviewed and Western community feedback is welcome. Because of the pandemic and the probable need to modify the Code again soon, this Code is review different and begins with this invitation for Western community input and continues through anticipated Board of Trustee approval in December 2021. More details about the process and timeline are available at the Student Conduct Code community review website noted below.

The substantive edits include keeping emergency changes put in place because of changes to federal requirements regarding Title IX, clarifications to confidentiality and record keeping, and updating some dated language. More details outlining the changes are available at the Student Conduct Code community review website, which includes the full Code with highlighted changes.  Feedback regarding the Code should be sent to student.life@wwu.edu  We expect to respond to every email but response time may vary based on the volume of feedback; all feedback will be reviewed thoroughly, and common questions/responses will be posted to an online document linked from the Student Conduct Code revision website found here: https://wwu2.sharepoint.com/sites/StudentCodeRevision2021.
