Office of Student Rights & Responsibilities
Mission
The Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities supports SUNY Broome’s mission to support all members of the learning community by creating access to inclusive, diverse educational experiences. The office ensures a fair and impartial administration of the disciplinary process while educating students about their responsibilities and protecting the rights of all members of the SUNY Broome community.
Student Conduct Philosophy
Every SUNY Broome student is a member of the College’s living and learning community, and as such, has certain rights and responsibilities. Students are responsible for their behavior while a member of the SUNY Broome community and, recognizing that their actions impact those around them, must prioritize fostering SUNY Broome’s inclusive and civil environment. In addition to following the SUNY Broome Code of Conduct, students must also agree to abide by local, state, and federal laws. The student conduct process is designed to uphold college policies and Student Village regulations while promoting the College’s educational mission.
Additionally, students who have guests and/or visitors not affiliated with SUNY Broome must inform them of the rules and regulations. Students may be held accountable for their guests’ actions. Students are also responsible for the actions of others whom they intentionally provoke or urge to violate policy.
