Ross Community Values

Our Codes and Statements

Statement of Community Values: The Ross School of Business community – students, faculty, and staff – agree to a common Statement of Community Values that governs all community members in both academic and nonacademic settings. Membership in the Ross community requires adherence to these values.

Academic Honor Code: This code applies to all student-related academic aspects of the Statement of Community Values. It covers all student academic activities related to the school’s various degree programs, whether these activities take place on or off-campus.

Code of Student Conduct: This code applies to all student-related nonacademic aspects of the Statement of Community Values. It covers all student nonacademic and extracurricular activities, whether these activities take place on or off-campus.

Process for Student Disputes with Instructors: This document formalizes the process for handling student disputes with instructors (e.g., grade disputes).

Statement of Student Rights and Responsibilities: When students choose to accept admission to the University, they accept the rights and responsibilities of membership in the University’s academic and social community. This document outlines those rights and responsibilities and discusses the type of violations against the statement, procedures for resolving those violations, and sanctions/interventions.
