University of Kentucky Student Organization Handbook

The Code of Student Conduct is an Administrative Regulation which establishes
the University's rules, responsibilities, and procedures for non-academic student
conduct. The Code defines expected and prohibited behavior, student rights
and responsibilities, the procedures to which students and student
organizations are entitled in the disciplinary process, and sanctions that may be
imposed when a student or a student organization is found responsible for a
violation of the Code.
