Conduct and Behavior
Lafayette students represent the College and are subject to all rules and regulations of their host institution while participating in an abroad program, and are also subject to the laws of the host country. All participants at all times must comply with Lafayette’s rules, standards, and instructions for student behavior defined in the College’s Code of Conduct (see the Student Handbook for specifics).
Lafayette reserves the right to enforce culturally appropriate standards of conduct in another country and specifically reserves the right to terminate the participation of any student for failure to maintain these standards or for any actions of conduct which Lafayette considers to be incompatible with the interest, harmony, comfort, or welfare of other participants. In particular, either possession/consumption of controlled substances (by U. S. definition, or that of any other country visited) or alcohol impairment/abuse may result in immediate termination from the program. Participants are expected to act responsibly at all times.
NOTE: Students whose participation in a study-abroad program is terminated either by the host institution or by Lafayette College for reasons of misconduct will receive neither credit nor refund. Suspended students must return immediately to the United States, and will bear all expenses related to the changes in itinerary.
