Reframing Campus Conflict: Student Conduct Practice Through a Social Justice Lens
“This publication is endorsed by ASCAas a collaborative, collegial new lens through which to consider how social justice practices and student conduct administration can come together to inform best practices in conduct and conflict management on college and university campuses.This approach serves to enhance the student’s ability to fully comprehend the seriousness of the conduct, appreciate the people, community, or institutions affected by their conduct, restore the people, communities, and institutions affected, and hopefully eliminate a repeat of inappropriate behavior. When a student comprehends the impact of their behavior on others; this truly allows the student to participate in not only an educational but transformative process. The student walks away from the experience with a greater appreciation for the community to which they belong and a deeper respect for others.”“The essays in this book start to fill an opening left by the Model Student Code. It is written by student affairs professionals with, collectively, centuries of student affairs experience [who] have worked in large and small institutions, public and private, all across the country and have experimented (and used successfully) a wide range of approaches.This book contains not only suggestions, but also models. You probably will not find one that fits your campus ‘exactly’. But what you will find is the treasure of careful thought that has been given to many different approaches. If you are lucky, you will find a nugget here and a kernel there that, together, will be just the New Approach that fits your campus history and expectations perfectly.”
