Consistent with the McHenry County College mission is an expectation that students will govern themselves in terms of appropriate behavior with emphasis on self-respect and respect for others. It is the practice of the College to respect the properly exercised rights of its students. The College recognizes a student’s rights within the institution to freedom of speech, inquiry and assembly, to the peaceful pursuit of education, and to the reasonable use of services and facilities of the College.
The Student Code of Conduct has been established to maintain order on campus and to guarantee the broadest range of freedom for all who come to learn at the college.
Each student is responsible for knowledge of and compliance with this Student Code of Conduct. The College further recognizes each student’s rights to fair procedures, including notice which specifies the alleged violation(s) of the Code of Conduct, an opportunity to respond to the allegations, and an appeal process appropriate to the nature and potential consequences of the violation.
Copies of the Student Code of Conduct are available in the Office of the Dean of Students, Room A252.
