- The student body of the London Program is comprised of all students participating in the current enrollment
period. Such students shall be subject to such ordinances, rules, regulations and restrictions as may now be established or
hereafter be established by the administrations of the home institution of enrollment, as well as the administration of the London Program.
- Students enrolling in the London Program assume an obligation to conduct themselves in a manner compatible with the London Program and their home institution of
enrollment. As a condition of admission, each student concedes to the London Program administrators and faculty the
right and responsibility to establish and to enforce regulations necessary to preserve the generally accepted standards of scholarship, integrity,
and conduct. Each student is expected to conduct himself/herself so as to maintain an effective environment for
learning, to act responsibly in accordance with good taste, to respect fully the personal property and rights of others, and to assume
responsibility as a member of a neighborhood for maintaining good community relations.
- Obstruction of London Program teaching, research, administration, or other London Program activities; indecent conduct or speech; failure to comply with
requirements of London Program staff/faculty in performance of their duties; and violation of the regulations and/or laws of the London Program, the institution of
their enrollment, the United States, or the city and country in which the student is a guest are examples of conduct which would contravene this standard of
student expectations. Removal from the Program of students who engage in serious infractions of these standards/requirements
governing all forms of student conduct may be in the best interest of the London Program. Student Handbook contains more specific information concerning student conduct and
related disciplinary action.
- Students are under the direct supervision of London Program faculty and staff when participating in London Program activities and are responsible for
their conduct wherever they are. As a courtesy, students are expected to sign out of the London Program residence
(citing their destination and estimated time schedule) whenever they plan to be absent overnight or to travel out of London.
- Students must enroll in at least 12 semester hours. Students are required to attend all lectures, seminars,
laboratories, and field work for the London Program classes in which they are enrolled, and to complete all work assigned by the instructor. Advance
arrangements for unavoidable absences should be made with the instructor and/or the London Program Director whenever
possible. Neither absence nor notification of absence relieves the student of the responsibility of meeting
all course requirements.
- Students may adjust schedules during the first week of the Program only (excluding the Summer Program, in which no adjustments may be made). Changes must be made by the last class day
(Thursday) of the first week. Such adjustments must be communicated to the home campus director immediately. At no time will a student
take less than 12 semester hours in the fall and spring semesters and 3 semester hours in each summer session.
- Make up of class work or examinations missed because of absence is worked out between the instructor and the student upon the student's initiative. Absences may result in the student's being
dropped from the course at the request of his/her instructor.
- London Program students have the responsibility for following the enrollment policies of their home institution of enrollment. Special care must be exercised
in any change of enrollment, such as adding or dropping classes, in order to assure timely and accurate interaction with the home institution.
- The grade review policy for the London Program is as follows:
- The student must write a formal letter of appeal to the faculty member.
- If the faculty member fails to respond and the student chooses to pursue the matter, the student's home campus grievance policy procedures are followed.
- As a part of the grade review policy, faculty members are required to include specific course (i.e., grade) requirements in the course syllabus. Students and faculty members must keep any
graded material from each class.
Should
a student fail to live up to the above expectations, his or her actions
are
subject to review by a judicial committee of three (3) students and one
(1)
faculty member convened by the Resident Program Director.
Upon the committee’s evaluation, the student
will be officially reprimanded and a record of the behavior and
judicial
outcome may be filed with the program and home campus.
If the student continues to behave in a
manner unbecoming, the Director, in consultation with the moderator of
the
London Program, has the authority to remove the student from the
Program.
