Letter From the Dean of Students

Dear Susquehanna Student,

I would like to introduce you to our Student Handbook for 2008-2009. The Code of Student Conduct, found within the Student Handbook, is critical in providing a sense of order and responsibility for the Susquehanna community. I hope you will read this document carefully. It is your responsibility to be familiar with the standards of conduct; ignorance is not an acceptable response if you violate a policy. The Student Handbook does not constitute the whole of University policy concerning students. The University Bulletin and Course Catalog is an equally important reference for policies and expectations.

Best wishes for the year ahead! I hope you will take advantage of every opportunity to enhance your Susquehanna experience. We are committed to your learning and want you to maximize your time in college. Susquehanna surrounds you with opportunities to challenge your intellect and to meet people with backgrounds and interests different from your own. Get involved! Through SGA, SAC, student organizations, Volunteer Project Houses, athletic teams, musical ensembles, publication staffs, etc., you have an opportunity and a responsibility to influence the student culture and experience at SU.

Sincerely,

Philip E. Winger
Vice President for Student Life and Dean of Students
