Student Affairs
Student Conduct
When a student is admitted to Howard Payne University he is required to
know and abide by the regulations and policies of the University as published
in the Catalogue and the Student Handbook, copies of which are available to
every student. Therefore, it is presumed that the student who elects to come to
Howard Payne University does so with the intent of being in fact and spirit a
cooperating member of this University community.
The University encourages students to conduct themselves as maturing men
and women and invites them to participate in the formulation of rules and to
assume responsibility in student judicial decisions. Students are selected to
serve on several committees as voting members. At the same time, all participants
in Howard Payne University life are reminded that, by the charter of
the University, the Board of Trustees is ultimately responsible for the school
and for its operation, and that, therefore, the University is not legally a
political democracy operated with the consent of the governed.
In general, the policies which govern student behavior are outlined below:
1. Howard Payne holds human dignity and worth inviolate: thus respect
for the thoughts, property and rights of other people must prevail.
2. The human body is considered to be God's temple: thus, the use or
possession of alcoholic beverages, harmful or personality-degrading
chemicals or narcotics are not tolerated.
3. Gambling, hazing, violence and the on-campus possession of firearms
could threaten individual dignity and rights; consequently, they are not
permitted.
4. A student under eighteen who plans to marry during the school year
must have parents or guardian notify the Vice President for Student
Affairs in advance.47
