The CBC student code of conduct will apply to conduct that occurs on college premises, at college-sponsored events and activities, and to off-campus conduct which are violations or alleged violations of local, state, or federal law and which also violate this student code of conduct. Such allegations or violations that occur off-campus can be the subject of college disciplinary action if the SCO determines disciplinary action is necessary. Students are responsible for their conduct from the time of application for admission until thirty instructional days following the actual receipt of a degree and/or certificate, even though conduct may occur before classes begin or after classes end, as well as during the academic year and during periods between terms of actual enrollment. These standards shall apply to a student's conduct even if the student withdraws from the college while a disciplinary matter is pending. The SCO will decide whether the code will be applied to conduct occurring off campus, on a case-by-case basis, at their sole discretion.
