STUDENT HANDBOOK
The Bemidji State University Student Handbook describes your rights and responsibilities as a student. It contains the policies and procedures that relate to many aspects of your life as a BSU student, in and out of the classroom. Whether you study on campus or online, membership in the BSU community brings with it the responsibility of becoming familiar with these policies.
Bemidji State University reserves the right to change, without notice, any of the materials (information, requirements, and regulations) published in the Handbook. Revisions are published to the student body and the university community through the Student Handbook website, which you can find at www.bemidjistate.edu/offices/student- affairs/handbook/

POLICIES & PROCEDURES
As a BSU student, it is important that you are aware of the policies and procedures relating to many aspects of your life
at the university — in and out of the classroom. These policies support a safe, respectful and ethical living, learning
and work environment which complies with the university’s mission and values
and applicable state, local and federal law. All Bemidji State faculty, staff and students are expected to be familiar with and abide by these policies. A full list and versions of all policies and procedures can be found in the online Student Handbook.
STUDENT CODE OF CONDUCT
The BSU Student Code of Conduct
and student conduct system are an integral part of BSU’s mission. The conduct system contributes to the teaching of appropriate individual
and group behavior and establishes behavioral expectations to foster a campus community free from disruption and harm. Students are expected to
be familiar with the Student Code
of Conduct and the student conduct system. The rights and responsibilities
of students and the expectations of
the university are described in the handbook, along with grievance reporting and other procedures. Behavior that is threatening to the safety or welfare of one’s self or others, or that is harassing or discriminatory in nature, will be reviewed promptly by the university and appropriate action will be taken.
A full version of the Student Code of Conduct can be found in the online Student Handbook. Information about how to file a complaint is available on the university website and on Page 8 of this planner.
