Records pertaining to discipline and other matters pertaining to citizenship shall be maintained separately from academic records. Extreme care should be exercised that citizenship records reflect accurate information and that they be restricted to student activities as a member of the University community. No record of political activities or beliefs shall be maintained except such matters a may be of public record as holding office in campus organizations. Such record shall be open to inspection by the student. Provision should be made for the destruction of non-current records which are not necessary to the permanent academic record of the student.
Students are free to organize and join associations to promote their common interests.
However, University facilities and services shall be afforded only to those student organizations recognized by the University in accordance with procedures established by the University. Recognition of an organization shall be withheld or withdrawn if an organization's avowed purposes or activities are or become illegal or a violation of University regulations. The activities of organizations may be suspended if under existing circumstances a clear and present danger exists that such activities may disrupt the educational process or endanger or destroy property or create a condition that is dangerous to the safety of individuals. Membership, policies, and actions of a student organization will be determined by vote of only those persons who hold bona fide membership in the college or university community. Affiliation with an extramural organization shall not in itself disqualify a student organization from institutional recognition.
