Student Conduct and Community Standards
Policies & Principles
Brown University has developed the Code of Student Conduct as a set of standards of student behavior and conduct that help maintain a campus environment where ideas are freely exchanged, University property and processes are respected, and conflicts are peacefully resolved.
We, as members of the Brown University community – faculty, undergraduates, graduate and medical students, and staff – are dedicated to supporting and maintaining a scholarly community in which all share together in the common enterprise of learning.
Brown is committed to ensuring fairness and integrity by outlining the rights and responsibilities of all participants in the student conduct process.
Brown University maintains a comprehensive set of policies and regulations that govern student life and conduct. Various offices across the University play a key role in overseeing and administering these policies to support a safe, equitable, and well-regulated campus environment.
