Introduction
The Code of Student Life sets forth requirements for students of West Texas A&M University by clearly stating the procedures and rules which govern student life and student conduct. It is hoped that the code will enhance good citizenship as students familiarize themselves with the contents of this publication and follow the provisions set forth therein.
Free inquiry and free expression are essential attributes of the community of scholars. Students are encouraged to develop the capacity for critical judgment and to engage in a sustained, independent search for truth. The freedom to learn depends upon opportunities in the classroom, on the campus and in the community. Students should exercise their freedom with maturity and responsibility.
Students are expected to conduct themselves in a manner compatible with the functions and purposes of West Texas A&M University. Although the University is committed to students' constitutional rights, including due process in student disciplinary matters, it has an equal obligation to protect its educational purposes. The University must be concerned with individual or group actions that are in conflict with the welfare and integrity of the institution.
