Introduction

In today’s world, students may exhibit behaviors that were once considered just immature, but now require us to consider the potential seriousness or possible threat of the speech or action. This training module provides information that will guide you, as faculty and staff, through relevant policies, good practice, and discussion questions to deal with disruptive student behavior.

Due to the serious nature of potential threats to maintaining a safe and secure campus community, you are encouraged to complete this training module. An understanding of policies and practices is not enough; therefore, all faculty and staff are obliged to strengthen knowledge and skills relating to student conduct. Professional judgment is required.

Please contact your dean or chief academic officer if you have questions or suggestions regarding this program.
