Guided by the Jesuit ideal of cura personalis, which underscores the value placed on the God-given dignity of every human person, Loyola College in Maryland places in highest regard the establishment and maintenance of a campus environment of interpersonal care and personal responsibility. Only when such a community exists can the College fulfill its goal to ensure the intellectual, ethical, social, and spiritual development, or formation, of its students. A caring college community can exist only when all of its members commit themselves to this purpose. Honesty, integrity, and taking responsibility for the welfare of self and other are characteristics of such a community.
Loyola College, therefore, sets high expectations of its students, as well as its faculty, administration, and staff, for conduct that supports the maintenance of a caring community. The disciplinary process is established as a primary educative mechanism by which students are provided with feedback about insensitive and harmful behaviors in which they may engage, and with opportunities and, in most cases, assistance to modify behaviors. Through the judicial process, students who violate the community standards come to learn the importance of personal responsibility. Being a member of the Loyola College community is a privilege that carries with it responsibility for the well-being of all other members of the community.
Overview of the Judicial Process
Any member of the Loyola College community may file a complaint with the Office of Student Life or Public Safety. Once a complaint is filed, a review of the information is completed and charges are filed if warranted. Most minor violations will be handled informally through an Educational Conference (ED Conference). Serious or repeated violations will be handled through either an individual or panel administrative hearing.
