Welcome. Due to recent changes at the University and to the need to more appropriately identify the office, Student Judicial Services has been renamed to the Office of Student Conduct and Resolution.
Mission
The mission of the Office of Student Conduct and Resolution program is to maintain a University environment that is conducive to the academic success of all students, to protect the rights of all members of the University community, and to provide a disciplinary process in which participants experience personal growth and appreciation for the responsibilities of living in a community.
Goals
Minnesota State University Moorhead is an educational institution and not a court of law. Therefore, the concept of fair play will take precedence in all settings and the philosophy of discipline will be one of an educational approach. It is hoped that disciplinary concerns are settled using the following goals:
- Assist the student in confronting the value questions surrounding the behavior
- Assist the student to understand the causes of the behavior
- Encourage the student in understanding the importance of taking responsibility and recognizing the consequences for their actions; and,
- Learn from the incident so that they may make better decisions in the future
