Student Code of Conduct

Students are expected to uphold the college’s Student Code of Conduct (AP 420 - Student Code of Conduct & Disciplinary Action), which can be found in the College policy book on the College's website.

The safety and welfare of the College community is the primary interest and concern of Marion Technical College. The mission of Marion Technical College is to provide the region’s most accessible, supportive, and personal pathway to career success. To support its mission, the College expects that all students will act responsibly. In cases where a student's conduct interferes with the mission of the College, disciplinary action may be taken against the student. The Student Code of Conduct contains regulations for handling the alleged student violations of the code of conduct in a manner consistent with the requirements of due process. Students must also comply with all local, state, and federal laws. 

The Student Code of Conduct is the minimal set of standards to which students will be held accountable. Certain academic programs may have additional program-specific standards students must follow. Students will be held to the higher set of standards. In programs that include an employment internship, clinical experience, or other work-based learning, good standing with the employer is expected and is essential for continuation in the program.
