As a student of the university, your conduct reflects on the university whether you are on campus or off. The foundation of our identity as a community is our core values of respect, responsibility, discovery and excellence. The university strives to make the campus community a place of study, work and residence where people are treated, and treat one another, with respect and courtesy.
All UMKC students are expected to abide by the University of Missouri System Collected Rules and Regulations and to uphold the Student Standard of Conduct. Students also assume the obligation to behave in a manner compatible with the university’s function as an educational institution.
Ignorance of these expectations is not an acceptable excuse for violating them. Every student is responsible for knowing the rules and regulations of the university.
Some academic units have their own honor code that is adjudicated separately from the Office of Student Conduct and Civility.
To contact the Office of Student Conduct and Civility to discuss a concern call 816.235.1047 or email Keisha' M. Boyd.

The office also addresses all forms of sex-based misconduct, including sexual assault, stalking and dating and domestic violence and abuse.
If you have been listed in a report as someone who may have knowledge of an incident, you may have to schedule a meeting with the Office of Student Conduct and Civility.
