The Office of Student Community Standards (OSCS) is pleased to announce that the updated Code of Student Community Standards (CSCS) is now live on the Humber Policy Website. The CSCS governs all non-academic student behaviour at Humber Polytechnic and the University of Guelph-Humber, including in the Residences. It establishes grounds for complaints, outlines the resolution process, and specifies potential outcomes for the Humber community. The Revised CSCS utilizes a spectrum model for resolution, incorporates more restorative practices, provides transparency, and engages students as much as possible in the resolution process. This novel conflict resolution model enables involved parties to select a resolution pathway that aligns with their preferences, while meeting necessary criteria, and empowers students to actively engage in the process, take accountability for their actions, and practice compassionate accountability. Along with adjusting language to make the CSCS more accessible, inclusive, and easier to understand, the goal of making these adjustments is to improve the outcomes of the CSCS process by focusing more on taking responsibility, repairing harm, and community building.

In this session, learn how OSCS is implementing restorative and educational processes for non-academic student conduct management that focus on repairing harm and fostering compassionate accountability. Understand the variety of resolution options that align with the principles of equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging. In addition, you will learn strategies for addressing behaviours that may occur in the classroom or student service environment. Learn what is within your purview and supports available to you as Humber/UGH faculty and staff.
