Community Standards
Student Affairs supports an inclusive community by advancing student learning, well-being, and personal and professional growth through leadership and engagement opportunities.
Community Membership Statement
As a community, ESF is committed to the highest standards of personal and professional behavior — both inside and outside the classroom. We celebrate the diverse backgrounds, cultures, and perspectives represented in our community and believe that respect for oneself and others leads to a community characterized by integrity and honor.
To demonstrate our commitment to the values of this community, our office will aid students in striving to be:
An Environmentally-friendly Community that adheres to the practice of respecting and sustaining the natural and the built environment.
An Educational Community that shares academic goals, one in which students, faculty and staff work together to strengthen teaching and learning.
A Civil Community that protects freedom of belief and expression, and treats all individuals with consideration, decency and respect.
A Responsible Community that accepts the rights and obligations expressed in the Code of Student Conduct designed for the common good of our entire community.
A Safe Community that respects each other’s rights, privacy and property.
An Ethical Community that reflects honesty, integrity and fairness in both academic and co-curricular activities.
A Diverse Community that celebrates our differences and learns from our diversity.
A Socially-aware Community that seeks to contribute to the betterment of the campus, the local community, the nation and the world.
Student Handbook
The ESF Student Handbook is the official guidebook to ESF traditions, services, resources, and many ESF policies.
Incident Reporting
We take the Code of Student Conduct very seriously. If you witness a violation and wish to report it, please do. Reports may be submitted anonymously.
Alcohol and Drug Amnesty Policy
The Alcohol and Drug Amnesty Policy passed by the ESF Board of Trustees in 2016 aims to increase students’ willingness to seek medical attention for others (or themselves) who may need it due to the consumption of alcohol and/or other drugs.
Alcohol and Drug Amnesty Policy
Title IX
Title IX is the federal anti-discrimination law that states: “No person in the U.S. shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, or denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any educational program or activity receiving federal aid.” (Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972).
