become just by doing just acts, temperate by doing temperate
acts, brave by doing brave acts.” -Aristotle

Statement of Purpose
Student Conduct, in the Office of Student Life, is responsible
for acting on behalf of the college in matters of student
discipline. Student Conduct handles alleged instances of
behavioral misconduct and academic dishonesty, in order to
determine how best to resolve these allegations consistent with
the goals and mission of the college as an educational and
intellectual community.
Student Conduct is chiefly responsible for the promotion of
campus community standards. Conduct processes protect the rights
of students as well as the programs, property and persons at
Central Ohio Technical College. The student conduct process
educates students about issues, policies and non-academic
discipline procedures.
Student Conduct’s mission is to protect student rights; help
foster a safe and secure environment; promote the development of
students; establish accountability for student choices; maintain
a fair process that promotes trust; and create learning
opportunities that encourage a growth mindset for integrity and
critical thinking.
Appeals Process
Central Ohio Technical College students have the right to appeal
issues which include matters of final course grades, academic
suspension or probation, academic dishonesty, dismissal from a
program or course, financial aid decisions concerning standards
of academic progress and results of grievance.
