Student Conduct Committee The Student Conduct Committee will consist of five members, including a nominated member of each class and the student senate president. When a member representing a class is not chosen, the president of that class will serve as the committee member. If for any reason a member of the Student Conduct Committee is unable to attend, he/she may send his/her class president in place of a nominated member or the vice president in place of the class president as a representative for that class. If any member of the committee is involved or associated with the situation being reviewed by the Committee, the person will be required to step down and his/her class president or vice president will take his/her place. D. Referral Process Students and/or faculty may submit a written statement to a member of the Student Conduct Committee detailing their concern about a particular student or situation. (Note: The College of Pharmacy ISU Policy and Procedures will be followed for any situation specific to those guidelines). The Student Conduct Committee will review all written statements submitted to determine the particular action that should be taken regarding that particular student. The Student Conduct Committee may require students to come before the committee to discuss possible resolutions. If students do not comply with the recommendations put forth by the Student Conduct Committee, the student will then be sent to the Student Affairs Committee for further evaluation. All reviews, decisions, and actions made by the Student Conduct Committee will be documented in writing and kept by the Student Senate. Progression In the interest of maintaining an acceptable level of academic standards, certain minimal requirements and regulations regarding academic achievement are followed as published in the Idaho State University General Bulletin. A subcommittee, henceforth referred to as the Progressions Committee, is established within the College of Pharmacy in accordance with ISU requirements and regulations to assure acceptable academic standards. The Progressions Committee is composed of four members. The Associate Dean of the College and the Chair of Pharmacy Practice and Administrative Sciences sit ex-officio as permanent-voting members of the Committee. The remaining two members are appointed annually from among the Student Affairs Committee of the College. In order for a student to make uninterrupted progress in the pharmacy program, they must: 1. Maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.0 for all required professional courses. This includes courses both within and outside of the College.* 2. Successfully pass all courses and rotations during the assigned time frame. 3. Meet the requirements of the 2-D rule which is: Students will be allowed no more than two “D’s” on their transcript in required professional courses. This includes courses both within and outside of the College. Students failing to meet the academic standards of the College of Pharmacy will be notified by the Associate Dean’s office and will result in one or more of the following as determined by the Progressions Committee: • The student will be placed on College probation. • The student may not be allowed to progress. 19 2006 College of Pharmacy Student Handbook
• The student may be prohibited from enrolling in any course in the College for a period of one or more semesters. • The student may be permanently dismissed from the College. * Students failing to maintain a 2.0 GPA for any semester will lead to academic probation. Failure to maintain a 2.0 GPA for any semester while on probation will lead to academic dismissal from the program. Advising The College of Pharmacy faculty and staff place a high value on academic advising. Student success is directly related to advising; the curriculum is demanding and much of it is sequential. Additionally, individual health status and CPR/AED and First Aid certification are verified when the student meets with his or her advisor. All pharmacy students are assigned a faculty advisor beginning with the P-1 orientation. Mandatory advising is required every semester. During the scheduled preregistration period, an individualized Advising Certificate (in duplicate) is distributed to each faculty advisor. The certificates indicate the appropriate course schedule and health status. Each student will meet with his or her advisor whereby one copy of the signed certificate must be returned to the Associate Dean’s office indicating that the student will be cleared to preregister. Electives Elective courses must have relevance to the healthcare profession and will serve to enhance the professional skills and knowledge of the student. 1. Elective credits must be 300 level or higher. Pharmacy students in the joint program, e.g., Pharm.D./Ph.D. program will petition to request that a graduate course fulfill elective requirements in the professional program. 2. Each student must complete six credits of elective courses. 3. Elective credits must be taken after enrollment in the Pharm.D. curriculum. Courses taken prior to Pharm.D. enrollment will not qualify as an elective. 4. The student must have his or her advisor’s approval prior to enrollment if an elective course is not on the previously approved list. 5. Elective credits less than a 300 level and/or off campus classes are subject to approval by the College of Pharmacy Curricular Affairs Committee. 6. Elective credits must be completed before beginning rotations. 7. Courses may be selected from within or without the College of Pharmacy.
