REAL Standards of Conduct Language/Behavior Student Diversity and Inclusion Services’ staff actively support UST’s efforts to create a campus community where every person feels welcomed and valued. To this end, all students, staff and faculty are expected to use language and exhibit behavior that is civil, respectful and appropriate for a college/work place environment. As new members of the UST community you must meet these same expectations. Examples of inappropriate language and/or behavior include the use of profanity and/or other derogatory language or actions.

Conflict Resolution All conflicts should be approached in a calm, mature manner. If a conflict cannot be resolved through communication between those involved, please contact a Peer Advisor, Residence Hall Director or the Student Diversity and Inclusion Staff for assistance.

Curfew Students are expected to be in their residence hall by 11:30 p.m. each evening, and may not leave the building until 7:00 a.m. the next morning. Those students going home for the weekend must return to the campus by 8:00 p.m. on Sunday evening (the same time as the REAL Program weekly residence hall meeting). You must call the Hall Director or your Peer Adviser if you expect to be late, as parents or guardians will be contacted concerning your absence. For those staying on campus for the weekend, if you are 18+, you are expected to be back in the residence hall at 2:30am. If you are under 18, 12:00 a.m is weekend curfew.

Alcohol and Drugs REAL Program participants may not, under any circumstances possess, use, purchase or sell alcohol or other illegal drugs. Students found to be in violation of this policy will be dismissed from the program, asked to leave campus, withdrawn from coursework and asked to return program materials.

Visitors/Guests All visitors/guests must be accompanied by a resident when visiting the residence hall. No visitors/guests (including REAL Program participants) are permitted in your room after 12:00 a.m. As necessary, you may arrange with your Peer Adviser or Hall Director to meet (or continue your conversation) with visitors/guests in one of the public spaces within the building.
