Student Judicial Policies and Procedures




II. Jurisdiction of the College

Members of the College community have responsibilities to federal, state and local laws, and the College will report any possible felony to the local police authorities as required by law. Further, Earlham holds students accountable for their on-campus violations of College regulations and expectations and for off-campus violations if that behavior occurs within public or private areas adjacent to the campus; or occurs in connection with a College-sponsored event or when students are acting as representatives of the College; or when a student’s actions directly affect another member of the Earlham Community.

Earlham will also enforce students’ rights and freedoms in relation to College policies and subject to the restraint from abuse outlined in the Student Conduct Section below. Those rights and freedoms include, but are not limited to, freedom of expression, scholarship, and inquiry in classes and campus activities. This includes the freedom of student newspapers, publications and productions that adhere to standards of responsible journalism. This includes the right to bring speakers, to form student organizations and to participate in orderly demonstrations. The College protects students’ civil rights, including the right to a reasonable degree of privacy, freedom from harassment and access to due process. Students have a right to confidentiality of their records, to access information and to participate in College governance.
