Purpose

The Student Code of Professional Conduct for the College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences (CPPS) provides general notice of prohibited conduct and of the sanctions that may be imposed when violations occur. The Student Code of Professional Conduct should be interpreted broadly and is not intended to define misconduct in exhaustive terms. The Student Code of Professional Conduct specifies the rights and responsibilities of the students, student organizations, the College, and the rights of other parties to the procedure.

Students and student organizations must engage in responsible social and professional conduct that reflects positively upon the CPPS community and demonstrates good citizenship in all settings. Conduct by students or student organizations that disrupts the orderly functioning of the college or threatens the health, safety, or well-being of members of the college community will not be tolerated.

Delegation of Authority

The Dean of the College, or designee, is responsible for administering and implementing this procedure, including establishing and disseminating the standards of conduct published as “The Student Code of Professional Conduct”. This code outlines the procedures and standards governing student conduct within the CPPS.

The Student Progress Committee is authorized to review each matter, determine whether a violation of the code has occurred, and issue appropriate sanction(s) when warranted. The Dean of the College is responsible for ensuring that any imposed sanctions are carried out. 

Application

This procedure, along with the UToledo Student Code of Conduct, (see https://www.utoledo.edu/policies/main_campus/student_life/pdfs/3364-30-04.pdf), applies to all students and student organizations of the college. In areas of overlap, this procedure supersedes the UToledo Student Code of Conduct.
