Student Rights and Responsibilities

The Elizabethtown College Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities upholds practices of a facilitative and fair nature, respecting individual rights while balancing these with community integrity, honesty, civility and safety. The Office holds the primary function in investigating and resolving alleged incidents of student misconduct. Further, our practitioners are dedicated to enriching the social learning experiences of students. We take pride in educating the community about balancing student and institutional rights and responsibilities.

OUR PLEDGE OF INTEGRITY:

“Elizabethtown College is a community engaged in a living and learning experience, the foundation of which is mutual trust and respect. Therefore, we will strive to behave toward one another with civility and with respect for the rights of others, and we promise to represent as our work only that which is indeed our own, refraining from all forms of lying, plagiarizing, and cheating.”

– adopted in 1995 by Elizabethtown College students and faculty.
