Miramar - Chamberlain College of Nursing

11. Violation of federal, state or local law on Chamberlain premises or at
College-sponsored or College-supervised activities or other violation of federal,
state or local law which has an adverse effect on the Chamberlain community.
If a student is charged with an off-campus violation of federal, state or local law,
Code of Conduct proceedings may be initiated if the violation of law holds the
potential of an adverse impact on the Chamberlain community.
College proceedings may be instituted against a student charged with violation
of a federal, state or local law that is also a violation of the Student Code of
Conduct (for example, if both violations result from the same factual situation),
without regard to the pendency of civil litigation or criminal arrest and prosecution.
Proceedings for violations of the Student Code of Conduct may be carried out prior
to, simultaneously with or following civil or criminal proceedings off campus.
When a student is charged by federal, state or local authorities with a violation
of law, the College may or may not, at its discretion, request or agree to special
consideration for that individual because of his/her status as a student. If the
alleged offense is also the subject of proceeding before a judicial body, the
College may advise off-campus authorities of the existence of the Student Code of
Conduct and of how such matters will be handled internally with the Chamberlain
community. The College will cooperate fully with law enforcement and other
agencies in enforcing criminal law on College property and in the conditions
imposed by criminal courts for rehabilitation of student violators. Individual student
or faculty members, acting in their personal capacities, remain free to interact with
a governmental representative or law enforcement official as they
deem appropriate.
12. Illegal or unauthorized possession of firearms, explosives, other weapons or
dangerous materials on Chamberlain premises or at any College-sponsored activity.
13. Participation in a campus demonstration that disrupts normal operations of the
College or infringes on rights of other members of the Chamberlain community;
leading or inciting others to disrupt the scheduled and/or normal activities within
any College building or area; intentional obstruction that is unreasonable and
interferes with freedom of movement and/or free flow of pedestrian or vehicular
traffic on Chamberlain premises or at a College-sponsored or supervised activity.
14. Conduct that is disorderly, lewd or indecent; breach of peace; or aiding, abetting
or procuring another person to breach the peace on Chamberlain premises or at
activities sponsored by the College.
15. Aiding, abetting or inducing another to commit a violation of the Student Code
of Conduct.
