As members of the San Bernardino Valley College learning community,
students are not to engage in any form of academic dishonesty. Any act of
academic dishonesty will be considered a very serious offense that is
subject to disciplinary action. The consequences of academic dishonesty
may include receiving a grade of “F” for a class or possible expulsion from
the college.
Substance Abuse
The San Bernardino Community College District strives to maintain a
workplace free from the illegal use, possession or distribution of controlled
substances as defined in the Controlled Substances Act. Students,
employees and visitors are subject to applicable legal sanctions under
local, state or federal law for the unlawful possession or distribution of illicit
drugs and alcohol. Disciplinary action will be imposed on a student for
misconduct for the following infractions while attending college classes or
college-sponsored events:
•
The use, sale or possession of illegal drugs
•
The presence on campus of anyone under the influence of drugs or
alcohol
•
The use or possession of alcoholic beverages on college property or at
any college-sponsored event.
Animals on Campus
The college does not permit staff or students to bring animals on campus,
with the exception of “seeing eye” and “hearing ear” and “seizure” dogs
and animals used for instructional purposes. At no time should dogs be left
in vehicles.
Children on Campus and in the Classroom
All children (with the exception of high school students who have been
admitted to the Middle College program) must be accompanied by an adult
while on campus. Children are not allowed in the classroom under any
conditions and are not to be left unattended in any campus facility. Should
this occur, the District Police will be notified immediately.
