CONDUCT
The laws of the University require from every student decorous, sober,
and upright conduct as long as he remains a member of the University,
whether he be within the University precincts or anywhere else. Drunkenness,
gambling and dissoluteness are strictly forbidden, and the President
may dismiss from the University any student found guilty of them, or may
administer such other discipline as seems best under the circumstances.
The President will dismiss from the University every student convicted
of public drunkenness, or of other conduct reflecting serious discredit upon the
University.
In all cases of discipline, the law requires that the student must first be
informed of the objections to his conduct and afforded an opportunity of
explanation and defense.
The keeping of dogs by students within the University grounds is forbidden.
Motor driven vehicles either owned or operated by students are prohibited
from parking in the roadways and alleys of the University grounds between
the hours of 8:30 a. m. and 4:30 p. m. However, students suffering from
serious physical disability, or who live more than two miles outside the city
limits, may be granted permits to park.
Prohibition of Credit.—An act of the Legislature prohibits merchants and
others, under severe penalties, from crediting minor students. The license to
contract debts, which the President is authorized to grant, is limited (except
when the parent or guardian requests otherwise in writing) to cases of
urgent necessity.
