Students are required to notify the university registrar of a change of home (permanent) or local (present) mailing address within 48 hours of such a change. Changes in address may be made using ISIS Online. The students bear the full responsibility for any consequences resulting from official University communications misdirected or not received because of an incorrect address.

The University of Virginia does not condone the illegal or otherwise irresponsible use of alcohol and other drugs. It is the responsibility of every member of the University community to know the risks associated with substance use and abuse. This responsibility obligates students and employees to know relevant University policies and federal, state, and local laws and to conduct themselves in accordance with these laws and policies. To these ends, the University publishes the following information regarding University policies and sanctions; laws and penalties concerning substance use and abuse; health and behavioral risks of drug use; and resources for treatment and educational programming.

Alcohol

Virginia State laws concerning the purchase, possession, consumption, sale, and storage of alcoholic beverages include the following: (1) Any sale of an alcoholic beverage requires an ABC license; (2) Alcoholic beverages are not to be given or sold to persons under 21 years of age; (3) Alcoholic beverages are not to be given or sold to persons who are intoxicated; (4) State law prohibits: drinking in unlicensed public places; possession of an alcoholic beverage by a person under 21 years of age; falsely representing one s age for the purpose of procuring alcohol; and purchasing an alcoholic beverage for a person who is under 21 years of age.

The University of Virginia assumes no responsibility for any liability incurred at any event not sponsored by the University where alcohol is served and/or sold. Students and members of Contracted Independent Organizations are always expected to conduct themselves in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and to assume full responsibility for their activities and events.

Areas of Emphasis

Drugs

Unauthorized manufacture, distribution and possession of controlled substances  (illegal drugs), including marijuana, cocaine and LSD, are prohibited by both state and federal law and are punishable by severe penalties. The University does not tolerate or condone such conduct. Students who violate state or federal drug laws may be referred by University authorities for criminal prosecution and, if convicted, may be subject to the penalties described herein.

Whether or not criminal charges are brought, all students are subject to University discipline for illegally manufacturing, distributing, possessing or using any controlled substance (i) on University-owned or leased property, (ii) at University-sponsored or supervised functions, or (iii) under other circumstances involving a direct and substantial connection to the University. Any student found to have engaged in such conduct is subject to the entire range of University sanctions described in the Statement of Students  Rights and Responsibilities, including suspension and expulsion.

Federal and State Penalties  Under the federal Controlled Substances Act and the Virginia Drug Control Act, the law penalizes the unlawful manufacturing, distribution, use, and possession of controlled substances. The penalties vary based on many factors, including the type and amount of the drug involved, and whether there is intent to distribute. Federal law sets penalties for first offenses ranging from less than one year to life imprisonment and/or $1,000 to $4 million fines. Penalties may include forfeiture of property, including vehicles used to possess, transport or conceal a controlled substance, and the denial of professional licenses or Federal benefits, such as student loans. Convictions under state law may be misdemeanor or felony crimes with sanctions ranging from probation to life imprisonment and/or fines of up to $1 million.

Intercollegiate Athletic Department s Drug/Alcohol Policy  The Intercollegiate Athletic Department of the University has additional written policies which are presented to each student athlete annually prior to participation. These policies encompass mandatory drug testing; sanctions as a result of positive tests; specific programs of education relative to drug and alcohol use and abuse; and counseling and rehabilitation programs.

Drug-Free Workplace Policy  The use of alcohol by employees while on University of Virginia owned or controlled property, including meal periods and breaks, is absolutely prohibited except when authorized by the University for approved University functions. No employee will report to work while under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs. Violations of these rules by an employee will be reason for evaluation/treatment for a substance use disorder or for disciplinary action up to and including removal. This policy applies to all employees (full-time, part-time, students, etc.).

Health and Behavioral Risks

The negative physical and mental effects of the use of alcohol and other drugs are well documented. Use of these drugs may cause: blackouts, poisoning and overdose; physical and psychological dependence; damage to vital organs such as the brain, heart and liver; inability to learn and remember information; and psychological problems including depression, psychosis, and severe anxiety. Risks associated with specific drugs are described later in this section.

Impaired judgment and coordination resulting from the use of drugs are associated with acquaintance assault and rape; DUI/DWI arrests; hazing; falls, drownings and other injuries; contracting sexually-transmitted diseases including AIDS; and unwanted or unplanned sexual experiences and pregnancy.

The substance abuse of family members and friends may also be of concern to students. Patterns of risk-taking behavior and dependency not only interfere in the lives of the abusers, but can also have a negative impact on the affected students  academic work, emotional well-being and adjustment to college life.

Students concerned about their own health or that of a friend should consult a physician or mental health professional. More information and assistance can be obtained by contacting one of the University s substance abuse resources listed in this policy or a community resource listed in the yellow pages of the telephone directory.

Alcohol  Alcohol abuse is a progressive disorder in which physical dependency can develop. Even low doses of alcohol impair brain function, judgment, alertness, coordination, and reflexes. Very high doses cause suppression of respiration and death. Chronic alcohol abuse can produce dementia, sexual impotence, cirrhosis of the liver, and heart disease, and sudden withdrawal can produce severe anxiety, tremors, hallucinations, and life-threatening convulsions.

Marijuana (Cannabis)  Marijuana has negative physical and mental effects. Physical effects include elevated blood pressure, a dry mouth and throat, bloodshot and swollen eyes, decrease in body temperature and increased appetite. Frequent and/or long-time users may develop chronic lung disease and damage to the pulmonary system.

Use of marijuana is also associated with impairment of short-term memory and comprehension, an altered sense of time, and a reduction in the ability to perform motor skills such as driving a car. Marijuana use also produces listlessness, inattention, withdrawal and apathy. It also can intensify underlying emotional problems and is associated with chronic anxiety, depression, and paranoia.

Hallucinogens  This category includes phencyclidine (PCP or angel dust ), and amphetamine variants which have mind-altering effects. Perception and cognition are impaired, and muscular coordination decreases. Speech is blocked and incoherent. Chronic users of PCP may have memory problems and speech difficulties lasting 6 months to a year after prolonged daily use. Depression, anxiety, and violent behavior also occur. High psychological dependence on the drug may result in taking large doses of PCP. Large doses produce convulsions, comas, and heart and lung failure.

Lysergic acid dyethylamine (L.S.D. or acid ), mescaline and psilocybin (mushrooms) cause illusions, hallucinations and altered perception of time and space. Physical effects include dilated pupils, elevated body temperature, increased heart rate and blood pressure, decreased appetite, insomnia and tremors. Psychological reactions include panic, confusion, paranoia, anxiety and loss of control. Flashbacks, or delayed effects, can occur even after use has ceased.

Cocaine  Cocaine stimulates the central nervous system. Immediate physical effects include dilated pupils and increased blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and body temperature. Occasional use can cause a stuffy or runny nose, while chronic use may destroy nasal tissues. Following the high  of extreme happiness and a sense of unending energy is a cocaine crash  including depression, dullness, intense anger, and paranoia. Injecting cocaine with contaminated equipment can cause AIDS, hepatitis and other diseases. Tolerance develops rapidly, and psychological and physical dependency can occur.

Crack or rock  is extremely addictive and produces the most intense cocaine high. The use of cocaine can cause kidney damage, heart attacks, seizures, and strokes due to high blood pressure. Death can occur by cardiac arrest or respiratory failure.

Stimulants  Amphetamines and other stimulants include ecstasy  and ice.  The physical effects produced are elevated heart and respiratory rates, increased blood pressure, insomnia and loss of appetite. Sweating, headaches, blurred vision, dizziness, and anxiety may also result from use. High dosage can cause rapid or irregular heartbeat, tremors, loss of motor skills and even physical collapse. Long-term use of higher doses can produce amphetamine psychosis which includes hallucinations, delusions and paranoia. Frequent use of Ecstasy may also cause permanent damage to serotonin producing neurons in the brain.

Depressants  Barbiturates and benzodiazepines are two of the most commonly used groups of these drugs. Barbiturates include phenobarbital, seconal and amytal; benzodiazepines include ativan, dalmane, librium, xanax, valium, halcion and restoril. These drugs are frequently used for medical purposes to relieve anxiety and to induce sleep. Physical and psychological dependence can occur if the drugs are used for longer periods of time at higher doses. Benzodiazepine use can cause slurred speech, disorientation, and lack of coordination. If taken with alcohol, abuse can lead to a coma and possible death.

Narcotics  Narcotics include heroin, methadone, morphine, codeine, and opium. After an initial feeling of euphoria, usage causes drowsiness, nausea and vomiting. Effects of overdose include slow and shallow breathing, clammy skin, convulsions, coma and possible death. Physical and psychological dependence is high, and severe withdrawal symptoms include watery eyes, runny nose, loss of appetite, irritability, tremors, panic, cramps, nausea, chills, and sweating. Use of contaminated syringes may cause AIDS and hepatitis.

Policy  The University of Virginia, in support of its Security Policy to maintain a safe and secure atmosphere for the community of students, faculty, staff and visitors to the Grounds, is committed to establishing an environment that encourages the proper use and parking of bicycles on the Grounds.

Encouraging the use of bicycles by members of the University community underscores the value of biking as an environmentally sound mode of transportation as well as the need to educate persons about the rights of those on bicycles. At the same time, the University must maintain a safe environment for pedestrians approaching, entering and utilizing buildings on the Grounds. It is important that bicyclists ride safely on sidewalks where permitted, and use bicycle racks for parking to ensure that their bicycles in emergency situations do not impede passage into or from buildings. It is also important that bicycles not be locked to railings constructed for persons with disabilities or locked to trees, bushes, or crowd control chains/fences in order to avoid damage to the Grounds.

Procedures  Given that bicycles are a form of transportation, the Department of Parking and Transportation is responsible for the issuance and administration of University bicycle regulations governing appropriate use and storage of bicycles.

The University Police Department provides an opportunity for individuals to voluntarily register their bicycles as a passive anti-theft device.

A very active University Cycling Club together with the Charlottesville Bike Club provide a pamphlet containing a bicycle map of the Grounds and pertinent safetysuggestions.

This policy applies to all computing and communications facilities and equipment purchased or leased with University funds. This policy is also known as the Ethics in Computer Usage  Policy.

Everyone within the University of Virginia community who uses University computing and communications facilities has the responsibility to use them in an ethical, professional and legal manner. This means that users agree to abide by the following conditions:

If abuse of computer systems occurs, those responsible for such abuse are held accountable and may be subject to disciplinary action. Report any abuse of computer systems and resources to abuse@virginia.edu.

Retention of Computer Files  The University regards electronic mail and voice communications as vehicles for delivery of information and not as mechanisms for the retention or archiving of such information.

It is the responsibility of the individual sender and/or receiver of such messages to determine which information should be retained or archived. Records should be retained in accordance with the University s financial and administrative policy on records retention and disposition (policy #II.C.1) and the Virginia state code. Records that are retained by an individual, even if they are retained on an electronic medium, are subject to the Virginia Freedom of Information Act and the Privacy Act. Current electronic technology is not considered acceptable for permanent (archival) storage. Thus, documents judged to be archival should be stored on an appropriate medium such as paper or microfilm.

Users of computer systems are expected to abide by the Computer Usage Policy.

Respect for Copyrights of Digital Materials and Software It is the policy of the University to respect the copyright protections given by federal law to owners of digital materials and software. It is against University policy for faculty, staff, or students to use University equipment or services to access, use, copy or otherwise reproduce, or make available to others any copyright-protected digital materials or software except as permitted under copyright law (especially with respect to fair use ) or specific license.

The software provided through the University for use by faculty, staff, and students may be used only on computing equipment as specified in the various software licenses.

The University regards violation of this policy as a serious matter, and any such violation is without its consent and is subject to disciplinary action. Repeated violations will result in loss of computing privileges, among other sanctions. For other policies related to computer use, consult www.itc.virginia.edu.

Students who attend, or who have attended, the University of Virginia are given certain rights under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) as amended (20 U.S.C. 1232g), and Rules of the Department of Education, (34 C.F.R. Part 99).

Student Rights  A student s rights under the Act and Rules may be summarized as follows:

Policies and Procedures  The University has adopted policies and procedures to protect the privacy rights of past and present students. The policy and procedures describe:

Directory Information  The University may disclose personally identifiable information designated as directory information from a student s education records without a student s prior written consent, unless the student informs the university registrar in writing and within fourteen days after the publication of this notice, that specified categories of directory information are not to be released without the student s prior written consent.

Directory information includes the student s name; home and school address; telephone number; e-mail address; place of birth; age; country of citizenship; major field of study; school of enrollment; full-time/part-time status; year in school; participation in officially recognized activities and sports; dates of attendance; degrees, honors, scholarships, and awards received; and the most recent previous educational agency or institution attended. In addition, directory information includes the names of students  parents or guardians and the weight and height of members of athletic teams.

Intellectual Property  The University has a Copyright Policy and a Patents Policy that govern rights of ownership in intellectual property created by persons associated with the University.

Before participating in activities which might result in the creation of copyrightable or patentable works and which utilize University resources or funding, consult these policies online at www.virginia.edu/~research or request a paper copy from the Office of the Vice President for Research and Public Service (924-3606). This office can answer your questions and explain the implications of the policy in your particular circumstances.

Videotapes  The federal Copyright Act of 1976 grants the copyright owner the exclusive right to perform motion pictures in any place open to the public or at any place where a substantial number of persons outside a normal circle of a family and its social acquaintances is gathered.  (United States Code, Title 17, Section 101). The legislative history of the Act clearly states that performances in semipublic  places such as clubs and schools are considered public performances  subject to copyright control whether or not admission is charged. Dormitories, fraternities and sororities may also be semipublic  places subject to copyright control.

Violations of copyright law may result in civil and criminal penalties, including imprisonment.

Ownership of a prerecorded video cassette or video disc does not constitute ownership of a copyright (17 U.S.C. § 202).

Further information regarding the showing of videotapes can be obtained by contacting the Reservations Office on the fourth floor of Newcomb Hall; (434) 924-3203.

Any University of Virginia employee, student, applicant for admission or employment, or other participant in the University s programs or activities who believes he or she has been unlawfully discriminated against on the basis of age, color, disability, national or ethnic origin, political affiliation, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, or veteran status may file a complaint with the Office of Equal Opportunity Programs (EOP) in accordance with the procedures described below.

Complaints should be directed to the Office of Equal Opportunity Programs, Washington Hall, East Range, Post Office Box 400219, Charlottesville, VA, 22904, (434) 924-3200; Fax: (434) 924-1313. The EOP on-line site can be accessed at www.virginia.edu/eop/.

Federal and state law and University policy prohibit any form of retaliation against a person who files a discrimination complaint in good faith. Disciplinary action may be taken against any person who files a discrimination complaint in bad faith, or who maliciously or knowingly files false charges. In cases in which allegations of discrimination are not substantiated, the University may, if appropriate, take reasonable steps, such as expungement of records or notification to persons who participated in the investigation of the charge, to restore the reputation of the respondent.

Employees and students are encouraged, where appropriate, to attempt initially to resolve complaints through the administrative structure of the employment unit or academic department. EOP will be available to provide assistance to the employment unit or academic department in order to resolve the complaint. If the complaint cannot be resolved through the appropriate administrative channel, the following complaint procedure applies:

Negotiated Resolution

Investigation

Policy  As an employer and institution of higher learning, the University seeks to discharge its legal responsibilities and serve its diverse and talented community through fair and responsible application of this policy. This policy does not allow curtailment or censorship of constitutionally protected expression, nor does it attempt to address behaviors that do not constitute discriminatory harassment.  Offensive workplace behavior that does not violate this policy should be addressed by the appropriate supervisor or office.

Definition  Discriminatory harassment is contrary to University policy and may also be illegal. The University defines discriminatory harassment as:

Examples  Discriminatory harassment can take many forms, and deciding whether the definition is met means looking at all of the circumstances. Each situation must be promptly reviewed and appropriate action taken. The following are examples of behavior that should be reported for review under this policy:

If you believe you are experiencing treatment that violates this policy, you may take the following steps:

Supervisor Responsibilities: Supervisors are responsible for communicating the University s policy on discriminatory harassment to employees, and for taking action when they observe or hear of incidents that may violate this Policy. A supervisor must:

Managers, supervisors, deans, directors, and department heads are responsible for informing employees who are under their direction or supervision of this Policy. Student affairs administrators are responsible for providing this information to the student body.

EOP is responsible for providing educational and training programs to assist members of the University community in understanding what discriminatory harassment is and is not, and how to address behavior that violates this Policy. Specifically, EOP will distribute copies of this Policy to all schools, departments and programs at the University, and will give workshops and seminars on this subject. EOP will maintain a brochure that explains in simple, understandable terms the University s policy and procedures concerning discriminatory harassment, and will place copies of the brochure in EOP s offices and at other offices to which persons are likely to go for counseling and advice regarding discriminatory harassment.

Section 4-213A1, Albemarle County Ordinance, effective July 19, 1973 states that it shall be unlawful for the owner of any dog to permit such dog to run at large on the University of Virginia Grounds lying within Albemarle County. Pursuant to this ordinance, a dog shall be deemed to run at large while roaming, running, or self-hunting off the property of its owner or custodian and not under its owner s or custodian s immediate control. Paragraph two of the University of Virginia Dog Leash Regulations of July 1, 1973 was amended, effective October 31, 1974 to preclude the tying, chaining or otherwise restraining a dog to any tree, bush, shrub or other vegetation, post, step or other fixed structure on the Grounds of the University. Any person who permits his or her dog to run at large shall be deemed to have violated the provisions of the ordinance and upon conviction shall be fined at the discretion of the judge trying the case. Dogs found running at large that are picked up by the University animal control officer will normally be deposited at the local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals pound to await identification by the claimant.

The possession, storage or use of any kind of ammunition, firearms, fireworks, explosives, air rifles and air pistols on University-owned or operated property, without the expressed written permission of the University police, is prohibited.

Students who have a grievance concerning the applicability of University regulations in the area of student affairs have the right to file a grievance according to the procedure listed below. (Also see grievance procedure, academic regulations.)

Hazing is prohibited under the State statute on hazing (Virginia Hazing, Civil and Criminal Liability, Code of Virginia, 18.2-56) as well as by University policy and the University s Standards of Conduct. The University does not condone hazing in any form. The term hazing  means any action taken or situation created by a member(s) of a student organization toward one or more organization members or toward prospective members (as a part of the new member selection process), that occurs on University-owned or leased property or at University-sponsored or supervised functions or at the local residence of any University student, faculty member, or employee, and that is designed to or produces mental or physical harassment, discomfort, or ridicule. Such activities and situations include, but are not limited to, creation of excessive physical or psychological shock, fatigue, stress, injury, or harm. Student organizations and/or individual members found to have engaged in hazing as defined in this statement shall be in violation of University policy and the University s Standards of Conduct and may also be in violation of the State statute. The State statute on hazing reads as follows:

It shall be unlawful to haze, or otherwise mistreat so as to cause bodily injury, any student at any school, college or university. Any person found guilty thereof shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor, unless the injury would be such as to constitute a felony, and, in that event the punishment shall be inflicted as is otherwise provided by law for the punishment of such felony. 

Any person receiving bodily injury by hazing or mistreatment shall have a right to sue civilly, the person or persons guilty thereof, whether adults or infants.  

The president, or other presiding official of any school, college or university receiving appropriations from the State treasury shall, upon satisfactory proof of the guilt of any student found guilty of hazing or mistreating another student so as to cause bodily injury, expel such student so found guilty, and shall make report thereof to the attorney for the Commonwealth of the county or city in which such school, college or university is, who shall present the same to the grand jury of such city or county convened after such report is made to him. 

Any violation of Section 18.2-56 shall be deemed a violation of the University s Standards of Conduct. Upon satisfactory proof of the guilt of any student charged with hazing or mistreating another student so as to cause bodily injury, the University will expel such student so found guilty by the University Judiciary Committee. The President will also report any disciplinary finding resulting in expulsion to the Commonwealth s Attorney of the appropriate jurisdiction (the county of Albemarle or the city of Charlottesville).

The Dean of Students, or designee, shall inform the Black Fraternal Council, Interfraternity Council, the Intersorority Council, the Multicultural Greek Council, and all fraternities, sororities, and student organizations who have executed contracts with the University as Fraternal Organizations or as Contracted Independent Organizations of the provisions of Section 18.2-56 of the Code of Virginia and of this University policy.

The responsibility of having and maintaining a student identification card is a serious one. I.D. cards are given only to bona fide University of Virginia students and represent both verification of an individual s identity and their affiliation with the University. The cards themselves and the privileges they accord are not transferable, either to another student or to a non-student. The University Judiciary Committee, in consultation with the Athletic Department, has established procedures for adjudicating cases concerning the misuse of a University Identification Card in relation to an athletic event that include a representative of the Office of the Dean of Students hearing and sanctioning violators.

For further information, please refer to the University Judiciary Committee s By-Laws (924-7602) or the Associate Athletic Director for Facilities (982-5022) or the Office of the Dean of Students/Student Life (924-7133 or ask-odos@virginia.edu).

An open party, dance, or social shall be defined as any event (or part thereof) where the main function or activity involves social interaction of guests, the performance or reproduction of music for the purpose of dancing or enhancing the environment for social interaction.  These events may include guests from outside the University of Virginia community.

The purpose of this policy is (1) to identify and implement measures designed to provide a reasonably safe environment for event sponsors and the students attending these activities and  (2) to clarify expectations of all entities involved in managing these events (including, but not limited to, sponsoring organizations, building staff, and University Police).

This policy applies to all University facilities that are available to host open parties, dances or socials.  Certain University facilities may be governed by more specific regulations.  Those specific regulations do not supersede this policy, but should be considered in addition to facility-specific regulations.

Attendance - Attendance at events defined in this policy is restricted to University of Virginia students and their guests (a UVa. student is eligible to bring up to two guests).  Students may gain admittance only with a *valid and current UVa. student ID; guests must have a valid picture ID in order to be admitted.

Admission - The event shall be open to UVa. students and their invited guests only.  A UVA student may sponsor up to 2 (two) guests. The guest(s) must arrive and enter with the student.  In order to gain admission to the event, the UVa. student must present a current UVa. student ID, and the guest(s) must present a valid picture ID; the UVa. student host must then sign her/himself and the guest in.  Note:  The guest policy applies to the DJ or band members as well. The DJ or band members (provided that they are UVa. students) are allowed to sponsor up to two guests. The sponsoring organization must ensure compliance by all persons attending the event including the DJ and/or band members.

Organization Guest List - The sponsoring organization may invite and sponsor guests. The intent of this provision is to allow the organization the flexibility to invite organization members from neighboring institutions, alumni members, and the like. The organization shall be responsible for the behavior of all individuals on its guest list.  Individuals on the organization's guest list must present a valid picture ID and must be signed in by a member of the organization to gain admission.

No person will be admitted who is visibly intoxicated or otherwise behaviorally impaired.

Alcohol, illegal substances, glass containers, and weapons of any kind are prohibited.

Attendees may be subjected to a visual search of person, handbags, or backpacks.

Passes to re-enter the event are prohibited.

Dances, parties, step shows, or other social events which are hosted by University student organizations and which end no later than 12:00 midnight and for which there is no admission charge.

Annual balls, or formals or social events that are open to organization members and their guests only.

Members of the sponsoring organization are responsible for the behavior of all guests attending the event.

Violation of any of these policies may result in sanctions against the organization and/or individuals. Sanctions may include, but not be limited to, referral to the Judiciary Committee and limitations on future uses of University facilities.

The University's philosophy in dealing with students who commit major alcohol- or drug-related infractions or who demonstrate a pattern of substance abuse is to work with them to solve these problems and to focus on education. The University will continue to rely on the professional judgment of its faculty and administrators when assessing each student's situation.

In addition, due to amendments to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, 20 U.S.C. s. 1232g ("FERPA"), giving colleges the authority to notify parents of students under 21 who violate alcohol or drug laws, the University has adopted a written Parental Notification Policy pertaining to drugs and alcohol.

This policy is in addition to the intervention and education programs already offered students when such infractions are brought to our attention. Intervention may include one or more of the following: substance abuse assessment by a trained clinician; psychological assessment by a trained clinician; substance abuse counseling; enrollment in educational programs.

Parental Notification:

The professional staff member in the Office of the Dean of Students will encourage the student to make the initial call to a parent or guardian. The staff member ordinarily will follow up with a phone call, unless family circumstances make a call inappropriate. In such cases, the student will be encouraged to use the University s professional counseling resources.

Pattern or severity include frequent episodes of drunkenness and/or binge drinking.

In the first-year living areas, the visitation hours for the first two weeks are 11 A.M. to 12 midnight, Monday through Thursday, and Friday 11:00 A.M. to Sunday midnight. At the end of the two-week period, all first-year living areas will vote by secret ballot to determine the visitation hours for the area.

In all residence areas, visitation in a room of a student who has a roommate must be with the roommate s consent or must not impose an unreasonable burden or unreasonable infringement of the privacy and privileges of the roommate.

The University limits sales, solicitation, and student fundraising activities in order to 1) preserve its educational mission and focus, 2) provide a secure environment, 3) protect its students and employees from exploitation, 4) respect the aesthetic qualities of the Grounds, and 5) promote fair business practices. When commercial sponsorship is sought or endorsed, it is important that this support primarily advances University or student organization goals and only secondarily those of a corporate sponsor.

For the purposes of this policy, solicitation is defined as selling, promoting for the purpose of future sales, commercial advertising, and canvassing. Fundraising is defined as any activity held by a student organization for the purpose of generating revenue to support the programs and activities sponsored by the organization.

A. Solicitation by External Entities and Their Representatives

The use of University facilities and/or property for solicitations by external businesses, individuals, and groups or by individual students representing such enterprises is prohibited without prior written permission of the Office of the Dean of Students.

Solicitation by student organizations may be allowed under certain guidelines in four general categories of activity: admission charges and tickets, direct sales, donations, and corporate sponsorship.

Student Organizations seeking solicitation/fundraising approval should submit a request on-line at www.virginia.edu/~newhall or in person to the Newcomb Hall Reservations Office for all fundraising projects held at all locations on Grounds except:

The University of Virginia strives to maintain a safe and secure environment for members of the student body, faculty, staff and the general public so that they are not unreasonably impeded in their activities by concerns for personal safety. The University Police Department is assigned broad security-related functions. At the same time, individual units, for example, schools, colleges, and various non-academic departments have responsibility for the security of facilities assigned for their use. The Police Department is charged to provide security regulations by which students, faculty, and staff are required to abide. Any building-specific regulations, established by units responsible for those buildings, must be consistent with the regulations established by the Police Department.

The University, as with any other public or private entity, cannot assure or guarantee a crime-free living or working environment. Accordingly, it is the responsibility of members of the University community to act in a security-conscious manner and to avoid actions which jeopardize their security as well as the security of others. Members of the faculty, staff, and student body should report all crimes, hazards, emergencies, or dangerous situations to the University Police Department.

Sexual Assault

The University of Virginia is a community of trust, in which students, faculty, and staff must be able to engage in their work without any fear of violence, threats, harassment, or other unwanted sexual actions.  The University considers sexual assault a violent crime in all its forms, including assaults by friends and acquaintances. Sexual assault is prohibited under state statute (§18.2-61, §18.2-67.1, §18.2-67.4, §18.2-67.5) as well as by the University's Standards of Conduct.

"Sexual assault" consists of sexual intercourse without consent, forcible sodomy or sexual penetration with an inanimate object, the intentional touching of an unwilling person's intimate parts (defined as genitalia, groin, breast, or buttocks, or clothing covering them), or forcing an unwilling person to touch another's intimate parts.  To constitute an assault, the above acts must be committed either by force, threat, surprise or intimidation, or by taking advantage of someone's helplessness or inability to consent of which the alleged perpetrator was aware or should have been aware.

The term "helplessness or inability to consent" means: 1) unable to understand the circumstances and implications of the sexual advances; 2) unable to make a reasoned decision concerning the sexual advances; and/or 3) unable to communicate the decision in an unambiguous manner.  These situations can result from illness, the influence of alcohol or some other substance, physical, psychological, or developmental disabilities, unconsciousness, or from some other cause.

Consent requires speech or conduct indicating a freely given agreement, with no fear of retribution accompanying refusal to have intercourse or participate in sexual activities.  Previous sexual relationships, current relationships with the perpetrator, or the use of alcohol and/or drugs may not be taken as an indication of consent.  Use of alcohol and/or drugs by the perpetrator or victim is not an excuse for violation of the sexual assault policy.

Individuals who are not sure if their case meets the definition of sexual assault are encouraged to contact either the Sexual Assault Resource Agency (SARA) 24-hour crisis hotline (434-977-7273), a community agency that serves the Charlottesville and University communities, or one of the University offices listed below.

Many victims doubt their own interpretations of events and hesitate to seek help.   Even if a student is unsure whether or not her or his experience fits into the legal definition of rape or sexual assault, it is very important to get medical attention immediately at the UVA Emergency Room. There, specially-trained Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners will contact SARA, which will send a companion to provide emotional support if desired.  Alternatively, survivors may contact SARA themselves.  We also encourage students to report their assaults to the police, although this is not required. It is not the University's policy to call a student's parents, unless the student is a legal minor or it is the express wish of the student that they be contacted.

A student's courses of action may include any or all of the following:

The University's Sexual Assault Education Coordinator (982-2774) provides information and guidance regarding these options, assists in making decisions about what course of action to take is best, and refers students to University and community counseling resources. Students may file for an internal hearing or mediation at the Office of the Dean of Students (924-7429). For a written description of the hearing process, contact either the Sexual Assault Education Office or the Office of the Dean of Students, or visit www.sexualassault.virginia.edu.

Domestic/Dating Violence

The University of Virginia is a community of trust, in which students, faculty, and staff must be able to study, teach, and work without any fear of violence, threats, harassment, or other unwanted abuses of power and control.  The University considers domestic/dating violence a crime in all its forms. Domestic violence is prohibited under State statute (§18.2-57.2) as well as by the University's Standards of Conduct.  The generally accepted definition of domestic violence is:

A pattern of physically, sexually, and/or emotionally abusive behaviors used by one individual to maintain power over or control a partner in the context of an intimate or family relationship.

Dating/domestic violence includes a wide range of behaviors, including emotional, physical, economic, and sexual abuse. Intimate partners may be in a dating relationship, cohabiting, married, separated or divorced. Both heterosexual and same-sex couples can become violent.  

The University strongly urges students who are in abusive relationships, or who are being stalked (see section on Stalking), to seek assistance from the Shelter for Help in Emergency's 24-hour hotline (293-8509), a community agency that provides counseling, emergency shelter, and other services to the University and Charlottesville communities.  The Sexual Assault Education Coordinator assists students in abusive relationships, and will help them connect with community resources, and provide assistance with obtaining protective orders, among other services. The SAEO website (www.sexualassault.virginia.edu) has valuable information and resources as well.

A student may obtain an Emergency Protective Order from the magistrate on her/his own or with the assistance of the police. Preliminary and Permanent Protective Orders must be obtained by applying through the Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court or General District Court. The Commonwealth of Virginia requires police officers to arrest the individual that they determine to be the aggressor when they are called to the scene of a domestic dispute. This removes the burden from the victim to make a citizen's arrest. If an arrest is made, the Victim Witness Assistance office may offer guidance through the court process. At the University, cases of dating or domestic violence that do not include sexual assault (in any form) are heard by the University Judiciary Committee, if the victim chooses this avenue of recourse.  

Stalking

The University of Virginia is a community of trust, in which students, faculty, and staff must be able to study, teach, and work without any fear of violence, threats, or other unwanted abuses and harassment.  Stalking is prohibited under state statute (§18.2-60.3) as well as by the University's Standards of Conduct.  Stalking is defined as:

Behavior in which an individual willfully,  and repeatedly engages in a knowing course of harassing conduct directed at a specific person which reasonably and seriously alarms, torments, or terrorizes the person.

Many of these behaviors may appear benign on the surface but can be perceived by the victim as malicious or frightening.  Stalking can include a range of behaviors such as breaking into personal e-mail accounts; monitoring the victim's every move, stealing mail; breaking into a residence to alter or steal items; leaving telephone threats, repeated calling, hang ups, and much more.  A stalker may be a former partner, a classmate, a vague acquaintance or a total stranger.  

Like dating violence, stalking is adjudicated by the University Judiciary Committee. Depending on the specific circumstances, a stalker can violate more than one Standard of Conduct and be brought up on charges accordingly. In order to be considered a criminal act (for lodging a complaint with the police), the victim must feel threatened or in fear of her or his personal safety.  Stalking is against the law in Virginia, starting as a misdemeanor and escalating to felony status by the third offense (If the survivor already has a protective order against the stalker, felony status is automatic).  The UVa. Police Department (924-7166) or the Sexual Assault Education Coordinator (982-2774) can discuss practical strategies for dealing with a stalker, as well as refer the victim to other resources.  More information on stalking can be found at www.sexualassault.virginia.edu.

The University of Virginia is a community of scholars in which the ideals of freedom of inquiry, freedom of thought, freedom of expression, and freedom of the individual are sustained. The University is committed to supporting the exercise of any right guaranteed to individuals by the Constitution and the Code of Virginia and to educating students relative to their responsibilities.

Students  Rights

The University of Virginia seeks to maintain an environment where students have the following rights:

The exercise and preservation of these freedoms and rights require a respect for the rights of all in the community. Students enrolling in the University assume an obligation to conduct themselves in a manner that is civil and compatible with the University s function as an educational institution. It is clear that in a community of learning, willful disruption of the educational process, destruction of property, and interference with the orderly process of the University, or with the rights of other members of the University, cannot be tolerated. In order to fulfill its functions of imparting and gaining knowledge, the University has the authority and responsibility to maintain order within the University and to exclude those who are disruptive of the educational process.

Standards of Conduct  The University of Virginia is a community of scholars in which the ideals of freedom of inquiry, freedom of thought, freedom of expression, and freedom of the individual are sustained. It is committed to preserving the exercise of any right guaranteed to individuals by the Constitution. However, the exercise and preservation of these freedoms and rights require a respect for the rights of all in the community to enjoy them to the same extent. It is clear that in a community of learning, willful disruption of the educational process, destruction of property, and interference with the orderly process of the University or with the rights of other members of the University cannot be tolerated. Students enrolling in the University assume an obligation to conduct themselves in a manner compatible with the University s function as an educational institution. To fulfill its functions of imparting and gaining knowledge, the University retains the power to maintain order within the University and to exclude those who are disruptive of the educational process.

Generally, prohibited conduct for which a student is subject to discipline is defined as follows (not including violations of the Honor System and motor vehicle regulations):

Sanctions  One or more of the following sanctions for prohibited conduct may be imposed upon students by the Judiciary Committee, depending upon the gravity of the offense:

Cases Involving Psychiatric Issues  The University has established two separate procedures to deal with allegations of misconduct for certain student cases involving psychiatric and psychological issues: Procedure for Psychological Hearings on Honor Offenses, and Procedure for Certain Student Cases Involving Psychiatric Issues. Contact the Office of the Dean of Students (924-7133 or ask odos@virginia.ed) for full information on the procedures.

Cases Decided By the President  The University President (or his designee) may initiate, intervene in and preempt proceedings before any University body when the President (or his designee) determines, in his discretion, that established processes will be unable to timely or properly adjudicate a case or complaint involving students arrested, charged or convicted of criminal conduct or other serious conduct not involving criminal proceedings which, in the discretion of the President (or his designee), reasonably endangers or threatens to disrupt the University community or University operations.

The foregoing shall include, without limitation, conduct involving the possession or distribution of controlled substances on or off University property, attempted or inflicted bodily injury or other harm to any member of the University community, and destruction or attempted destruction of University property. The President s (or designee s) disciplinary review shall provide affected students with written notice and opportunity to be heard consistent with due process of law, and such further proceedings as he may stipulate appropriate to the circumstances. Disciplinary proceedings before the President (or his designee) shall not be governed by established processes of other University bodies, and shall terminate proceedings before any other University body unless authorized by the President (or his designee).

The jurisdiction of University bodies shall be subject to the continuing authority of the President to discipline, suspend and/or expel as provided above.

Conduct in the Residence Area  In addition to the University regulations and policies described above, the Housing Division provides specific regulations that define the terms and conditions of occupancy of University Housing. These policies are published in the Student Housing Calendar. It should be noted that these regulations are encompassed under the University's Standards of Conduct, specifically under standards six and nine.

Resident Staff live in single student housing to enforce University regulations, policies and Housing Terms and Conditions.

These policies and guidelines are intended to ensure that extracurricular use of the physical facilities of the University is responsible and consistent with the mission of the University.

I. General Policies

The following policies apply to all extracurricular uses of all University property, unless a specific exception is noted. Facilities normally closed to extra-curricular activities because of their function as well as locked buildings, classrooms or other facilities are excepted from these policies. The Vice President for Student Affairs or his or her designee is authorized to administer and interpret these general policies.

A. Definitions

B. Who May Use University Space

C. Permitted Uses

The following instructions and procedures governing conduct shall apply to the extracurricular use of all University property. The Vice President for Student Affairs or his or her designee may adopt and issue supplementary provisions when necessary.

B. In order to ensure that the rights of all parties are protected, the Dean of Students, in cooperation with students who have reserved University space, may develop and make available in advance specific provisions to govern conduct at a given event. For example, special rules may be devised to prevent disorder or other interference with the activity; precautions may be taken to avoid physical harm to persons or to property; and attendance may be limited according to space requirements or the desires of those who have reserved the space, so long as they do not conflict with the provisions herein.

C. When University space has been reserved or is in use, persons who wish to communicate to those in attendance (for example, by the distribution of leaflets or carrying of signs) will be permitted to do so in a manner that does not disrupt the activity in progress, that does not interfere with or harass those who are entitled to attend and that complies with any special rules developed pursuant to paragraph B of this Section. Actions that interfere with the opportunity of the audience to hear and observe the proceedings, that physically interfere with the proceedings or that create disruptive noises which penetrate the area of the proceedings are prohibited.

D. All persons on University property are subject to these provisions and to the provisions of local, state and federal law. Appropriate action may be instituted against any person who does not comply therewith.

E. Persons designated by the President are authorized to ask persons who are using or occupying University space in a manner inconsistent with these policies or guidelines to leave. A person who has reserved space or who is in charge of the event is also authorized to ask any person who engages in conduct inconsistent with these provisions to leave the event.

F. Students who do not comply with a request to leave should be warned that disciplinary action may be taken which could result in suspension or expulsion from the University. If the violation continues, University disciplinary procedures may be initiated.

Any person who does not comply with a request to leave should be warned that action may be taken which could result in arrest for violation of the law. If the violation continues, appropriate action may be instituted.

The following procedures and guidelines are designed to ensure efficient use and management of University buildings, grounds and playing fields. Building Supervisors, or others responsible, may develop specific reservation procedures and scheduling guidelines for particular buildings or fields. Such specific rules shall be considered a part of the general reservation procedures and scheduling guidelines.

A. University space can and should be reserved in order to assure its availability at the time desired. General information concerning reservable spaces at the University can be obtained from the reservations office on the fourth floor of Newcomb Hall, telephone (434) 924-3203. Available spaces in Student Activities Buildings can be reserved through the reservations office. Spaces in other buildings or playing fields can be reserved through individual Building Supervisors. Consult the staff in the reservations office for current information.

B. In order to achieve a fair distribution among interested parties of certain facilities in high demand and to insure that the use of space is appropriate to its character, Building Supervisors or other persons charged with responsibility for University space may establish restrictions and priorities for the use of University facilities. The principles of first applied-first granted will in most instances guide decisions on assignment of space except that academic (curricular) uses have priority in academic space.

Use of the Lawn

The Lawn is the geographical and spiritual heart of Jefferson s academical village,  which still serves much of its original purpose a setting where faculty and students live and work together. The entire University Community students, faculty, administrators are its trustees, as well as the beneficiaries of its beauty and usefulness. The Lawn has extremely diverse uses and characteristics, among which are the following:

The Lawn is replete with fragile, delicate structures and landscape content. Preservation is a constant concern and a burgeoning curatorial responsibility. That responsibility has been entrusted to the University as part of its fiduciary obligations to future generations. The danger that misuse of the Lawn presents to the historic edifices, and to their dependencies and surroundings, is real, not theoretical. Differing rules and regulations may apply to different parts of the Lawn e.g., the lower terrace may be governed by different safety precautions and regulations from those that apply to the upper three terraces. Moreover, space limitations and the number of requests for facilities dictate orderly administrative rules, always providing that these rules be content neutral.

Based on the foregoing considerations, the operative policy for the use of the Lawn area consists of the following:

A. That the gardens of the Pavilions are public areas. Those garden areas adjacent to the Pavilions are not required to be open to the public at all times. They are to be open when not in personal use, and they must be open on certain occasions, e.g., Garden Week. To temporarily close these adjacent gardens for personal use by the Pavilion residents, an appropriate sign may be placed upon the gates notifying the public. Where the garden is divided into two portions by the intervening wall, the remote section may be open to the public at all times. The use of the gardens for social gatherings of University organizations is to be permitted where consistent with the occupancy of the Pavilion as home by the resident.

B. That for the upper terraces of the Lawn (those between the Rotunda and the crosswalk at the northern limit of the Homer Terrace  at the south) no structure shall be permitted on the Lawn except for those needed in connection with official University functions. (The term structure  includes props and displays, such as coffins, crates, crosses, theaters, cages, and statues; furniture, and furnishings, such as desks, tables except those temporarily used by participants in the ceremonies or by University officials for the conduct of the ceremonies), books, and cabinets; shelters, such as tents, boxes, shanties and other enclosures; and other similar physical structures. The term structure  does not include chairs, signs held by hand, bicycles, baby carriages, and baby strollers temporarily placed in, or being moved across the Lawn; and wheelchairs and other devices for the handicapped when used by handicapped persons.) The same rule shall be in effect for the lower ( Homer ) terrace, except that for that area of the Lawn officially recognized student groups, academic or administrative departments, or University-related organizations or foundations may be granted use by the Office of the Dean of Students. That office will consider use in accordance with dictates affecting time, place, and manner. Among them are the following:

Use of the Rotunda

Reservations may be made by contacting the Rotunda Administrator (924-1019). Reservations will be made in accordance with the guidelines set forth below and in accordance with University regulations.

Rotunda facilities may be reserved for dignified occasions, within the guidelines, by University departments, groups primarily controlled by faculty, staff, the Alumni Association, Student Council recognized student groups, or University contracted independent organizations. Any event held in the Rotunda must be related to the University s primary mission. Assignment of spaces shall be content neutral. Because of the heavy demand, it will be the responsibility of the Rotunda Administrator to make the facilities available to as many requesters as possible, avoiding overuse of any group. The Rotunda will not be used for private parties (e.g., wedding receptions) nor will it be used for events requiring the collection of admission fees at the Rotunda. No displays of corporate sponsorship are allowed in the Rotunda.

The Dome Room is the most fragile of the Rotunda facilities. Of special concern is the heart pine floor, which is fragile and irreplaceable. Special care must be taken in the use of this room. Such affairs as seated dinners, lectures, and musical events would be appropriate uses; however, cocktail parties and dances are not permitted. Refreshments may be served only at seated meals. Smoking is prohibited.

Events that do not conflict with inside users may be held on North or South Porticos of the Rotunda provided that they are dignified occasions and are in compliance with Lawn Use regulations. Alcoholic beverages may not be served on the Porticos while the University is in session. Reservations may be made through the Rotunda Administrator.

The Dome Room and other Rotunda facilities may be used after the normal closing hour for the Rotunda (4:45 P.M.) only if official Rotunda personnel are present. Users will be billed for the cost of these employees on an hourly basis. A room use fee will also be assessed. The use of candles in the Rotunda is restricted to oilless candles in the Dome Room during catered dinners. Candles are to be placed in holders on dinner tables by catering staff. Candles are not to be carried when lit. Because of very limited fire escape routes, there is an absolute limit on the capacity of the Dome Room which was set by the University Safety Officer. The maximum capacity for banquets is 105 persons; for lectures and similar functions, the maximum capacity is 140 persons (124 seated, 16 standing). For additional room capacities, please see University Policy XV.I.1. In addition, all events are to end and all guests must vacate the premises by 10:30 P.M. This curfew will be strictly enforced.

University Dining Services must provide and serve food and beverages for all Rotunda events. Visitors may not bring food or beverages into the Rotunda. Food and drink may be served only in the Lower West Oval Room and the Dome Room (seated meals only). No food or beverages may be transported between floors.

No furnishings, antiques, tables, chairs and heavy equipment may be moved in any of the rooms without the permission of the Rotunda Administrator. Furniture, antiques and furnishings will be moved only by qualified Rotunda or University employees. Heavy equipment such as pianos are not to be taken to the Dome Room. Audio visual equipment and musical instruments are to be arranged by the user. All equipment must be approved by the Rotunda Administrator prior to the event.

Because of the high demand for use of the Rotunda, all requests for its use must have a sponsor. A University of Virginia department, a contracted independent organization, or a University related foundation may serve as a sponsor. A representative of the sponsor must be present during the event and will serve as the liaison with Rotunda and other University staff.

For a dinner, a $50 security deposit is required at the time the reservation is made. Deposits for other evening events will be determined on an individual basis by Rotunda Administration. The deposit will be deducted from the itemized bill sent to the sponsor following the event. No refunds will be issued for events cancelled less than 30 days prior to the event. Users are required to agree in advance to pay for damage done to the Rotunda as a consequence of their event.

During the time the Rotunda is open to the public (usually 9:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.) Dome Room events will not normally be closed to the public. The oval rooms, if reserved, may be used for lectures, seminars, and meetings to which the public is not invited. The public is not invited into the Rotunda after the normal closing hours.

Students are encouraged to use the alcoves in the Dome Room for study whenever the room is available during normal open hours, subject to normal regulation by the Rotunda Administrator.

Except for official University-wide functions, the Dome Room will not be used for luncheons or receptions; these events may be scheduled in the Lower West Oval Room.

The Dome Room may be used for dinners no more than three times each week, and on an annual average of no more than ten times each month. No activity may reserve the Dome Room for more than two consecutive evenings.

An elevator to the upper floors is available for those visitors to the Rotunda with mobility limitations. These persons will be taken on the elevator by Rotunda personnel upon request. Others should use the stairways.

The glass doors overlooking the South Portico are to remain closed at all times except for official University-wide functions.

These policies and procedures were adopted to ensure that services and activities offered by the University are consistent with the mission of the University and do not compete unfairly with the private sector.

I. General Policy

A. When determining whether University services and activities should be maintained, supported or established by the University, the following factors will be considered:

C. Services and activities should not be offered to the general public or to the University community solely as a means of creating additional revenue or because the University can provide the service at a cost savings to its faculty, staff, students and patients.

D. Services and activities should be reviewed periodically, as provided below, to ensure conformance with the intent and purpose of this policy.

E. This policy does not apply to instructional programs currently approved by the Provost or sponsored program activities currently reviewed by the Office of Sponsored Programs.

II. Procedure

A. New or Expanded Services and Activities

All new or expanded services and activities, except those relating to degree programs and course offerings, must pass through a four-step review process before being offered to the general public or to University faculty, staff, students and patients. If a proposal is offered before final approval is secured under these procedures, the University will not be responsible for any commitments, obligations or expenses incurred if the proposal is disapproved.

Services and activities provided by the University will be reviewed at least once every five years by the responsible Vice President to make sure they are in compliance with the intent and purpose of the University s policy on Services and Activities. This review should include consideration of the information contained in an activity description as outlined in Paragraphs 1(a), 1(b), 1(c), 1(d) and 1(e) of Section II. A of this procedure.

Origin

University of Virginia students have entered into an agreement embodied in the Honor System that they shall not tolerate lying, cheating, or stealing from their fellow students. Students must comply with the Honor System in Charlottesville and Albemarle County, or and anywhere that they present themselves as students of the University. Students are thus presumed to be honorable unless their actions prove otherwise.

Those who violate this spirit of mutual trust have committed an offense against the community. Their continued residence at the University would undermine the basis of this community, which holds that personal fulfillment is best achieved in an atmosphere where only honest means are used to achieve any ends.

In an effort to maintain its viability as a norm of conduct characterizing life at the University, the Honor System has undergone many changes since its establishment in 1842. Each student generation must ensure that the system covers only those offenses that are intolerable to their community.

In the event of a guilty verdict, the student is denied further membership in the University community and is not entitled to hold or receive a degree from the University of Virginia. Recommendation is made to the General Faculty to revoke degrees awarded to students who have breached the Honor Code during their tenure as students. In such instances, the General Faculty conducts separate degree revocation proceedings consistent with due process of law.

The Honor System is the finest example of student self-governance at the University. It demands from each student a commitment to the ideal that forms the very basis of the system. A thorough understanding of the system is an essential part of every student s matriculation.

Responsibilities

The benefits that accrue from the Honor System, both tangible and intangible, are possible only if the system is supported by the entire student body. Each student has a responsibility under this system to report any breach of the Honor Code to the Honor Committee.

Students who enforce the system by reporting honor offenses are performing the solemn duty of protecting their individual liberties and those of the student body. Accused students may either admit their guilt and leave the University or inform the Honor Committee that they would like a jury panel to convene to consider the case. After a full hearing of the case, accused students are either absolved of all guilt or found guilty by a jury of their peers. In the event of a guilty verdict, students are denied further membership in the University community and are not entitled to receive or hold degrees from the University of Virginia. Shortly after matriculation, every entering student is given an orientation on the philosophy and procedures of the Honor System. The first exposure to the system, however, takes place before enrollment begins. Videos and letters containing information about the Honor System are sent to each entering student, so that before arriving at the University, the student understands his or her obligation to comply with to the Honor System.

The Honor System has thrived as a way of life at the University since 1842. Its success represents the willingness of every student generation to live by its principles. The system s continued strength depends on the responsibility of current and future students of the University.

The Honor Committee

The Honor Committee is responsible for the overall administration of the Honor System. It is composed of two representatives from each of the eleven schools of the University, with the exception of the College of Arts and Sciences, which has three representatives. The committee elects a Chair, Vice-Chair for Investigations, Vice-Chair for Trials, Vice-Chair for Services, and a Vice-Chair for Education from among the representatives. Honor Committee members are elected each spring by the student body.

Policy

The Honor Committee will not send notification of an accusation to the University Registrar or the Dean of the school of enrollment. The accused student will be accorded all rights of a registered student in good standing, until proven guilty of the offense by trial, or  leaving the University admitting guilt.

The Honor Committee will notify the University Registrar immediately when a student is dismissed from the University as a result of an honor trial, or the result of an accused student leaving the University admitting guilt. The effective date of dismissal will be the date of a student s trial. Prior to the official dismissal, no record of an honor accusation will be noted on a student s record.

Only letters signed by the Honor Committee Chair and delivered to the Office of the University Registrar will be considered official, though unofficial letters will be sent directly to the University Registrar electronically to expedite notification. Immediately upon the receipt of this communication, the notation Enrollment Discontinued  and effective date will be entered onto the student s academic record by the Office of the University Registrar. The Honor Committee will also forward copies of dismissal letters to the Vice President for Student Affairs.

In cases where students under investigation or accused of Honor offenses choose not to cooperate with the Honor Committee, the Committee will request that the Registrar place blocks upon class registration or transcripts until such time as that student satisfies the Honor Committee of his or her cooperation.

Degree Candidates

In coordination with the Office of the University Registrar, and with the use of the Integrated Student Information System (ISIS), the Honor Committee will identify those students who have been accused of an Honor offense who may be degree candidates in the current semester. If such students are identified, the Honor Committee will forward a list of these accused students (full name and identification number) to the University Registrar. This notification will be provided to the University Registrar at least two weeks prior to graduation day and will be updated, as needed, and provided to the Office of the University Registrar as soon as possible up until the date of degree conferral.

Degree candidates who are accused, but have not appeared at trial prior to graduation day, will be accorded many of the rights of other degree recipients. This includes participation in all ceremonies, inclusion on all lists of degree candidates for the specified term, and inclusion in the Finals Program. They will not, however, receive their degree until  all Honor proceedings are completed and the student is acquitted of the honor charges. Students who are convicted will not receive degrees. The Committee will notify degree candidates in person, by certified mail, or by courier prior to Finals Day. This notification must specifically state that (1) the student has been accused of an honor violation, (2) that the degree is being withheld with the understanding that, should the student be found not guilty, the degree will be conferred and the diploma awarded. Students will also be notified at this time of their right to confidentiality and their responsibility to inform parents and others who may be attending graduation ceremonies that they will not receive a diploma on graduation day. Neither the Honor Committee, nor any University official, will inform any party of the accusation against the student without the express consent of the student him- or herself.

This policy is in accordance with the procedures of the Honor Committee and the Office of the University Registrar.

Juries

In 1990, the student body reaffirmed a 1980 referendum to allow randomly selected students to serve as jurors in honor trials. It is the right of the accused to be judged by a panel of peers; therefore, students are called upon to serve as jurors to help judge the guilt or innocence of an accused student. To ensure that the trial process remains as equitable and expedient as possible, students are obligated to respond to the jury notification letters forwarded by the Honor Committee. Once secured as a juror, students are expected to appear on the designated trial date. Failure to meet these obligations will be considered a breach of the University Standards of Conduct. These cases will be subject to an appropriate sanction as determined by the Honor and Judiciary Committees.

In March 1997, the student body approved a change to the manner in which jury members vote at trial. Jurors now take two votes. They first vote on the factual matters of act and intent; then they vote on the more subjective standard of seriousness. This second vote only occurs if the jury finds, by a four/fifths vote, that act and intent exist. A majority vote on seriousness is required to find the accused student guilty.

Honor Support Officers

The Honor Committee appoints student support officers each year who are responsible for various aspects of the Honor System. Honor Advisors, Counsel, and Educators are charged to advise students involved in honor cases, conduct investigations, participate in trials, and disseminate the philosophies and guidelines of the Honor System, respectively. When an honor violation is suspected, an Honor Advisor should be contacted immediately at 924-7602. The Honor Committee selects support officers each fall through a series of tests and interviews.

The Bad Check Committee

The Bad Check Committee, an agency of the Honor Committee, has promoted good student-merchant relations in the area since 1923. Upon receipt of a bad check, merchants contact the Bad Check Committee rather than the police. The primary function of the committee is to assist University students in clearing up their bounced checks quickly to ensure students the privilege of writing checks in the community. Its second purpose is to protect this relationship by requesting suspension for the few flagrant violators who damage the merchant s trust. Finally, the committee attempts to preserve and expand the good relationship that students and area merchants enjoy due to the Honor Code.

Unknowingly writing a bad check that is paid upon notification does not fall within the scope of the Honor System. However, willfully writing and passing bad checks is a violation of the spirit of trust between students and merchants in our community. The Bad Check Committee may refer any case involving the willful passing of bad checks to the Honor Committee for investigation as a possible honor offense. Students deemed repeat offenders by the committee may be suspended from the University for up to one semester.

The Bad Check Committee is composed of elected representatives from the schools of the University and selected support officers. The Honor Committee s Vice Chair for Services serves as the chair, assisted by the bad check coordinator. The coordinator is a support officer chosen by the Vice-Chair for Services and confirmed by the Honor Committee to that position.

In accordance with Section 23-9.2:3 of the Code of Virginia the Transportation and Parking Committee has approved the following regulations for the operation of motor vehicles by all students, faculty, and staff members of the University of Virginia. As appropriate, these regulations also apply to visitors operating motor vehicles on the University s Grounds. The regulations remain in effect from July 1, 2001 until amended. Students should contact the Department of Parking and Transportation for any amendments which may be effective without notice.

General Introduction  Operating and parking motor vehicles in University controlled areas is permitted only in accordance with University Motor Vehicle Regulations. These regulations have been prepared and distributed to assist those who plan to operate and park motor vehicles on University property. Knowledge of the regulations is assumed, and they are enforced by the Department of Parking and Transportation and the Department of Police. Ignorance of the regulations is not a basis for appeal of parking citations.

Parking in University controlled areas is by permit only except at meters and in attended lots. The responsibility for finding a proper parking space rests with the vehicle operator. The regulations apply to all vehicles driven or parked on University property, regardless of who operated the vehicle. The individual in whose name the permit is held, the registered owner and/or operator of the vehicle is held responsible for violation of these regulations. Employees who are being payroll deducted and fail to return their permits or gate access pass upon separation are held liable for the remaining balance.

The University of Virginia assumes no responsibility for the care or protection of any vehicle or its contents at any time.

The University of Virginia reserves the right to set aside areas for special events such as plays, funerals, athletic events, etc., in all University controlled parking areas.

Parking Permits

Standard Commuter Permits authorize parking in parking spaces and areas which are labeled blue or red permit areas. Students living in dormitory, Lawn, or Range housing may not purchase or use these permits without written permission from the Dean of Students or the Director of Parking and Transportation.

Storage Permits are sold to students living in University housing, including the Lawn, the Ranges, dormitories, Copeley III and IV, and Lambeth Apartments. These permits authorize parking in accordance with the letters and/or numbers on the permits in lots which are labeled as orange S  permit areas.

Reserved Permits are generally available only to Staff and Faculty on a first-come, first-serve basis. However, reserve permits are available to students in certain lots. Permit privileges in some lots may be determined either by lottery or by assignments by University departments that have spaces designated solely for their use. Reserved permits authorize parking in accordance with the letters and/or numbers on the permit in lots with the same letter and/or number designation. Reserved permits are also authorized in any blue (not red) commuter area.

Handicapped Permits  Persons with a permanent or temporary physical handicap who hold a U.Va. parking permit may submit requests to the Department of Parking and Transportation for special permits entitling them to reserved parking. In addition, these permits allow parking at meters free of charge and at designated handicapped spaces. Students must submit such a request through the Department of Student Health.

Resident Permits are sold to residents of the University owned family housing. These permits grant parking privileges in accordance with the Family Housing Handbook, published by the Division of Housing.

Second Car Permits  A person may register more than one vehicle, provided each vehicle meets the certification requirements set forth previously in section II D. The vehicle displaying the second car permit may not be parked on the Grounds at the same time the vehicle displaying the primary permit is parked on the Grounds.

Transferable Permits  Transferable (hang tag) permits are available for all areas and convey the same privileges as stick on mirror permits. Any vehicle displaying a transferable permit must satisfy eligibility requirements stated for the particular permit displayed.

Temporary Permits  Temporary permits, issued for periods of up to twelve weeks, convey the same privileges as permanent permits. Temporary permits can be issued to a permit holder at no charge if the permit is to be applied to a temporary alternate vehicle that is being used by the permit holder, such as one borrowed or rented.

Note  Parking permits are the property of the University and may be physically removed from bearer s vehicle by University representatives if they are not voluntarily returned when a permit is revoked.

Gate Access Passes are issued in lieu of the types of permits described above for reserved parking in gated areas. A deposit is charged at the time of purchase for a gate access pass.

If the employee who has been assigned an HSC reserved permit should leave the University and wishes to transfer the permit to a member of the carpool, the following procedure is required to accomplish the transaction: the employee who has the HSC reserved parking assignment must register the existence of the carpool membership by requesting a Carpool Form from the Office of the Associate Vice President at the HSC (Box 800799, telephone 434-924-5147). This form is required in order for consideration to be given for transfer of the reserved permit to another member of the carpool.

Dashboard permits must be displayed on the dashboard on the driver s side of the vehicle.
