Students' Responsibilities and Rights
In meeting the standards for admission to the College of Charleston and choosing to enroll, students are subject to all college regulations. The academic and non-academic policies outlined by the College are intended to promote honorable citizenship that encourages a thriving living and learning environment sensitive to the rights of others and the achievement of knowledge. Our expectations neither advocate the surrender of basic constitutional rights nor dilute those rights, but strengthen and complement the rights of each individual enrolled.
By coming to the College of Charleston, students accept the responsibility to adhere to its regulations and codes. It is in the spirit of good citizenship and community stewardship that specific rights and responsibilities are detailed in the Student Handbook: A Guide to Honorable Conduct. The handbook is available at the Student Affairs website. It is the responsibility of all students to become familiar with the academic and conduct regulations that govern eligibility to continue at the College. Examples include:
- Academic Integrity and the Honor Code
