Exceptional Students. High Standards.

The Office of Diversity, Inclusion & Social Responsibility guides the development and implementation of proactive diversity, inclusion, and social responsibility initiatives in support of the Cheyney University strategic plan to create a learning and working environment where all can succeed.

We promote a culture of belonging through programs, policies, and community expectations that reflect our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and social responsibility. Students are expected to uphold these values and conduct themselves in ways that foster respect, safety, and accountability.

Student Code of Conduct

As members of the Cheyney University community, students are expected to uphold high standards of integrity, accountability, and respect for others. The Student Code of Conduct outlines the behaviors, responsibilities, and expectations that support a safe, inclusive, and supportive learning environment. Students are responsible for knowing and following these standards, as well as all applicable University policies, whether they are on campus, participating in University-sponsored activities, or representing Cheyney in the broader community.

These expectations are in place not only to address misconduct, but to encourage personal growth, responsible decision-making, and mutual respect. By understanding and adhering to the Student Code of Conduct, students help maintain a campus culture where everyone can learn, live, and thrive.

Students are expected to know and abide by the following:
