Duke Community Standard

Duke University is a community dedicated to scholarship, leadership, and service and to the principles of honesty, fairness, respect, and accountability.

Undergraduate Conduct Board

Members of the Undergraduate Conduct Board undergo training yearly in preparation for their role as panelists in a hearing to consider whether a student or group violated a university policy; and, if so, determine appropriate (an) appropriate sanction(s).

Student Conduct

The Office of Student Conduct strengthens personal responsibility and accountability through investigation and resolution of alleged violations of university policies. We encourage honesty, integrity, and respect within the undergraduate community as promoted by our honor code, the Duke Community Standard. Any student named in a report of a possible violation of university policy is presumed to not be in violation of such unless the student accepts responsibility for the violation(s) and/or the disciplinary process makes such a determination.

The 2018-19 edition of The Duke Community Standard in Practice: A Guide for Undergraduates ("DCS Guide") is now available and is distributed to all students who live on campus.  Students who live off campus may pick one up on the 2nd floor of Crowell Hall (East Campus, behind Wilson dorm and the Friedl Building) between 8:30 AM and 5 PM Monday through Friday.  A list of noteworthy changes for the 2018-19 year is available here.
