Students’ Rights and Responsibilities

Students have the right to live and study within an atmosphere of intellectual and religious freedom, which includes access to educational resources on campus, the free and open sharing of ideas, and the right to pursue academic goals. This freedom is cultivated and safeguarded within a respectful, nondiscriminatory environment that encourages students to share ideas while maintaining respect for each individual’s dignity and intellectual rights.

Students have the right to safety and security free from any violence, harassment, abuse, discriminatory behavior, and intimidation.

Students have the right to privacy in personal matters unless their behavior or personal possessions contravene College, State, or Federal law.

Students have the right to due process and a just hearing regarding alleged violations of College rules and regulations.

Code of Student Conduct

AIC does not tolerate any form of violence, abuse, harassment, intimidation, or coercion between students, faculty and staff. Any conduct that is threatening to the health and security of a person or persons will be confronted, investigated, and possibly met with College disciplinary action, including legal prosecution. Sexual harassment or misconduct, hate crimes, discrimination, violence, bullying, threats, abuse (physical, verbal, psychological), or misuse of College technology or social media to target groups or individuals will be taken as clear violations of AIC regulations and local, state, and federal law.

Other areas of violation of Student Conduct Codes:

  • Plagiarism, cheating, and all forms of intellectual dishonesty.
  • Vandalism to school property.
  • Unauthorized duplication of keys.
  • Attempts to sub-lease dormitory rooms.
  • Using, possessing, or distributing alcohol or controlled substances (non-prescription drugs).
  • Using, possessing, or distributing pirated goods.
  • Possession of firearms, dangerous weapons, flammables, and harmful substances.
  • Smoking on campus.
  • Fundraising or soliciting.
  • Disorderly and/or disruptive conduct.
  • Theft.
  • Refusal to abide by College rules and guidelines.

If a student is accused of violating the Student Con­duct Codes, that student will be notified in writing and a hearing will be held. If a student misses the hearing, a decision will be made without the student’s presence. Parents (where appropriate) will be notified. Records will be kept in the Main office, which will be strictly confidential. The student has a right to appeal if the sentence is expulsion/permanent dismissal. Such an appeal must be submitted in writing and must make mention of one of the following possible reasons for the appeal:

  1. Procedural errors in the hearing.
  2. New information/evidence pertaining to the alleged offense.
  3. Sentence imposed was not appropriate for the nature of the violation.

Student Responsibilities

In order to honor and uphold the freedoms, rights, and safety of their fellow students, along with AIC faculty and staff, students are responsible for conduct that may impact others or cause harm to the campus and its facilities. Students are thus responsible for reporting any behavior that may be a threat to the safety and security of students, faculty, staff, and facilities.

Students must be respectful of their classmates’ views and academic goals. Students must respect the mission, philosophy, and values of the American Islamic College, insofar as it is understood to be a non-denominational, Islamic institution of higher learning.

Students must therefore adhere to the AIC rules and regulations found in this Student Handbook.
