CSI is committed to maintaining an environment that supports honesty, respect, trust, civility, free inquiry, creativity, and an open exchange of ideas. The College requires students to conduct themselves honestly and responsibly, and to respect the rights of others. The Student Code of Conduct is established to support the mission and purposes of the College, foster the educational and civic development of our students in a safe and secure learning environment, and protect the people, properties, systems, and processes that support the College. The Student Code of Conduct sets forth those acts which constitute unacceptable conduct. All CSI students are expected to read and abide by the Student Code of Conduct. Students are also expected to adhere to federal, state and local laws and regulations, in addition to CSI policies and procedures. Student Code of Conduct violations may justify appropriate disciplinary actions including, but not limited to, warning, required compliance, reprimand, restriction or suspension of privileges, restitution, probation, suspension, or expulsion.
Statutory Authority
The statutory authority and the enumerated general powers and duties of the Board of Trustees of a junior (community) college district are established in Sections 33-2101, 33-2103 to 33-2115, Idaho Code. The Board of Trustees of the College of Southern Idaho have the authority to adopt rules and regulations for its own government and the government of the College.
The Student Code of Conduct Applies to:
- Applicants who applied for admission for offenses committed as part of the application process or while on College premises and/or while participating in College-sponsored events or activities;
- Students registered in credit or non-credit courses offered by the College of Southern Idaho;
- Students who have completed the immediately preceding term and are eligible for reenrollment, including the breaks between terms;
- Former students for offenses committed while a student;
- Student organizations – any group or organization of CSI students that has obtained official recognition as a student organization.
The Student Conduct Code applies to student conduct that occurs on College premises (property owned or controlled by the College) and/or at College-sponsored events or activities. College property also includes computers and network systems owned, maintained or controlled by the College or funded by College budgets or designated by the campus as subject to these policies. At the discretion of the President or his/her designee, the Code also shall apply to off-campus student conduct when the conduct, as alleged, adversely affects a substantial College interest and indicates that the student may present a danger or threat to the health or safety of himself/herself or others.
By enforcing its Code, the College neither substitutes for nor interferes with other civil or criminal legal processes.
