Oregon Administrative Rules
Chapter 574 - OREGON UNIVERSITY SYSTEM, WESTERN OREGON UNIVERSITY
Division 31 - CODE OF STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY
Section 574-031-0020 - Jurisdiction

(1) The regulations contained in the Code will apply to all matters affecting the University, including, but not limited to, events occurring during the time the University is in session, events occurring between academic terms, at University Sponsored On- and Off-Campus Events, and any illegal behavior on or off the Campus by WOU Students. Misconduct by non-students (Business Visitors, Visitors/Guests) whether on-Campus or at a University Sponsored On- or Off Campus Event may result in a trespass from Campus or any future WOU event.

(2) Allegations of Student misconduct may be Adjudicated within the University's administrative Campus Student Conduct Program as well as within any off-campus criminal justice system regardless of whether the alleged behavior occurred on- or off-Campus. Adjudication of allegations of Student misconduct will occur expediently and sometimes before or concurrently with adjudication within an off-campus system of justice. Determinations made or sanctions imposed under this Code shall not be subject to change because criminal charges arising out of the same facts giving rise to violation of University rules were dismissed, reduced, or resolved in favor of or against the criminal law defendant.
