(A)
The code of
student conduct, a part of the Ohio Administrative Code, is established to
foster and protect the core mission of the university; to foster the scholarly
and civic development of the university's students in a safe and secure
learning environment, and to protect the people, properties and processes that
support the university and its mission. The core mission of the Ohio state
university is to be the model public university dedicated to research, teaching
and learning, and service. The university's shared values define our ethical
culture - for all students, faculty, and staff - in support of that mission.
These values are:
(1)
Excellence and impact: demonstrating leadership in
pursuit of our vision and mission
(2)
Diversity and
innovation: welcoming difference and making connections among people and
ideas
(3)
Inclusion and equity: upholding equal rights and
advancing institutional fairness
(4)
Care and
compassion: attending to the well-being of individuals and
communities
(5)
Integrity and respect: acting responsibly and being
accountable
Our shared values support principles of
open-minded exploration and freedom of expression, respectful and inclusive
community, and caring relationships built on trust through honesty,
transparency, and authentic engagement. Additional information can be found

.
(B)
As members of the
Ohio state university community, we strive to embody these shared values
through our actions and conduct. The Ohio state university/buckeye honor
pledge's purpose is to motivate reflection on our shared values and emphasize
the importance of one's personal commitment to ethics in education and
learning. Instructors have the discretion to ask students to include a signed
version of the pledge with examinations, papers or other academic
assignments/requirements. Additional information can be found at
https://ugeducation.osu.edu/buckeye-honor-pledge
.
The buckeye honor pledge
"As a Buckeye I pledge to act with
responsibility and care. I will build trust through honesty, transparency, and
authentic engagement. I will demonstrate integrity through my original
contributions and respectful collaboration with others. I will act in
accordance with the code of student conduct. Time and change will surely show,
I will uphold these values wherever I go."

The ADA
coordinator's office can provide accomodations based on the impact of a
disability to students during the student conduct process. Students are
responsible for requesting these accomodations when they feel they are needed.
