Olympic College, as a state supported institution of higher
				education, has a mission of providing excellence of instruction, responsiveness
				to community and individual needs, and open communication in a collegiate
				atmosphere to citizens of Kitsap and Mason counties. Sharing responsibility for
				this common mission, students and college personnel are joined in a voluntary
				college community.
Olympic College students are both citizens and members of the
				college community. As citizens, students shall enjoy the same freedoms that
				other citizens enjoy. As members of the college community, they are subject to
				those responsibilities which accrue to them by virtue of this
				membership.
Admission to Olympic College carries with it the expectation
				that students will conduct themselves as responsible members of the college
				community, that they will comply with established rules and regulations of the
				college, maintain high standards of honesty and integrity, and respect the
				rights, privileges, and property of other members of the college
				community.
Olympic College expects that students will conform to the laws
				of the greater society and regulations established to assure the orderly
				conduct of the affairs of the college.
The student is at once a member of the community at large and
				the college community. As such, the student is subject to the rights,
				responsibilities, laws, and regulations of each community and accountable to
				both.
To accomplish these purposes the college is governed by rules,
				regulations, and procedures designed to safeguard its functions and protect the
				rights and freedoms of all members of the college community.

Fundamental to the democratic process are the rights of free

				to examine and to discuss all questions of interest to them and to express
				opinions publicly and privately. They shall always be free to support causes by
				orderly means which do not disrupt the regular and essential operation of the

				larger community that in their public expressions, students or student
				organizations speak only for themselves.
Any recognized student organization may invite to the campus
				any speaker a group wishes to hear, providing suitable space is available and
				there is no interference with the regular scheduled program of the college and
				officially sanctioned procedure is followed. It is understood that the
				appearance of such speakers on the campus implies neither approval nor

				employees, or the board of trustees. In the case of speakers who are candidates
				for political office, equal opportunities shall be available to opposing
				candidates if desired by them. Speakers are subject to normal considerations
				for law and order.

(1) As members of the academic community, students are
		encouraged to develop the capacity for critical judgment and to engage in an

		inseparable facets of academic freedom. The freedom to learn depends upon
		appropriate opportunities and conditions in the classroom, on the campus, and
		in the larger community. Students should exercise their freedom with
		responsibility. The responsibility to secure and to respect general conditions
		conducive to the freedom to learn is shared by all members of the college
		community.
(2) The following enumerated rights are guaranteed to each
		student within the limitations of statutory law and college policy which are
		deemed necessary to achieve the educational goals of the college:
(a) Academic freedom.
(i) Students are guaranteed the rights of free inquiry,
		expression, and assembly upon and within college facilities that are generally
		open and available to the public.

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
Student publications and the student press are a valuable aid
				in establishing and maintaining an atmosphere of free and responsible
				discussion and of intellectual exploration on the campus. They are a means of
				bringing student concerns to the attention of the faculty and institutional
				authorities and of formulating student opinion on various issues on the campus
				and in the world at large. Financial and legal autonomy is not possible,
				therefore, Olympic College, as the publisher of student publications, may have
				to bear the legal responsibility for the contents of the publications. In the
				delegation of editorial responsibility to students, the institution must
				provide sufficient editorial freedom and financial autonomy for student
				publications to maintain their integrity of purpose as vehicles for free
				inquiry and free expression in an academic community. At the same time, the
				editorial freedom of student editors and managers entails corollary
				responsibilities to be governed by the canons of responsibilities such as the
				avoidance of libel, indecency, undocumented allegations, attacks on personal
				integrity, and the techniques of harassment and innuendo. As safeguards for the
				editorial freedom of student publications, the following provisions are
				necessary:
(1) The student press should be free of censorship and advance
				approval of copy, and its editors and managers shall be free to develop their
				own editorial policies and news coverage consistent with
Canons of
				Journalism.
(2) Editors and managers of student publications shall be
				protected from arbitrary suspension and removal because of student, faculty,
				administration, or public disapproval of editorial policy or content. Only for
				proper and stated causes should editors and managers be subject to removal and
				then by orderly and prescribed procedures of the publishing
				organization.
(3) It is expected that campus student publications shall have
				a written editorial policy consistent with the above.
