STATEMENT OF STUDENT RIGHTS

SECTION I--FREEDOM OF ASSOCIATION.

  1. Students shall be free to organize and join associations to promote their common interests.
  2. UI may require student associations to submit a list of officers and objectives, but they shall not otherwise be required to disclose their membership.

SECTION II--FREEDOM OF INQUIRY AND EXPRESSION. (See also 6220.)

  3. Student associations shall be free to invite and to hear any person at their meetings.
  4. All official student communications media shall have the right to establish and maintain internal control of operations and content, free from prior censorship. Only for proper and stated causes will editors and managers be subject to removal, and then only by procedures prescribed at a prior date.

SECTION III--STUDENT CONDUCT. (see also FSH 2100 and 2300)

  1. Student conduct regulations shall be approved by the faculty and shall be codified and published under the title "Student Code of Conduct and Resolution Process" (FSH 2300).

Procedures for review of code violations are described in FSH 2300.
    2. Disciplinary actions shall be commenced only for alleged violations of regulations that have been properly enacted and that are in force at the time of the violation.
  5. Except where new material information is discovered, no student shall be brought up on alleged violations of the Student Code of Conduct a second time for the same alleged incident where a previous review/hearing was fully exhausted for the same alleged incident.
