What to do when the learning
environment is jeopardized?
A students fundamental right is the right to learn,
and the College has a responsibility to provide
protections, opportunities and environments that
promote learning. The student, in turn, has
responsibilities to other members of the Mott
Community College community to refrain from
interfering with the rights of others to learn, teach,
and work.
Any student who commits any of the following acts
of misconduct shall be subject to disciplinary action
by the college. These regulations shall apply only
where a student’s misconduct has adversely affected
some college process or function or some other
distinct and clear interest of the college as an
academic community.
