THE UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2001-2003 STUDENT HANDBOOK

The Student Handbook is produced by the Office of Student Life with the assistance of relevant departments and committees. Questions about the Handbook should be directed to Student Life, 330 Memorial Union, 401-874-2101 (TT 401-874-2285). The Handbook is printed every two years and changes that occur between printing will be published in the campus newspaper and distributed through residence halls and the commuter center. The Community Standards and Student Discipline system pertain to all part-time and full-time students; graduate and undergraduate; matriculating and non-matriculating; to newly admitted students; and to students participating in exchange programs or cooperative programs on University of Rhode Island campuses. While these standards pertain primarily to the University campus, it should be noted that the University has the same high expectations of students' off campus activity. Off-campus conduct may also be subject to University jurisdiction (see Section 12).
