Why do off-campus incidents get turned in to judicial affairs?
Slippery Rock University is an integral part of the surrounding community including Slippery Rock Borough, Slippery Rock Township, and Butler County. Any incident of a disciplinary nature occurring in the surrounding community will affect the ability of the university to maintain positive relationships with local citizens. Any significant incident that implicates those involved as representatives of Slippery Rock University, regardless of where the incident occurs, are also subject to university disciplinary action. By taking disciplinary action, the university upholds the expectation that students demonstrate good citizenship.
