  • Student Code of Conduct Addendum
    Alfred State Student Code of Conduct Addendum COVID-19 Public Health Emergency On August 23, t he FDA granted full Additional Responsibilities & approval of the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid- 19 vaccine. In accordance with SUNY’s Requirements for Students mandatory vaccine policy, all students must submit proof of vaccination by (Fall 2021) Friday, September 24, or have been granted an exemption by the College. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and in accordance with the College’s original reopening plan, an addendum was made to the Student Code of Conduct for the purpose of communicating and enforcing student responsibilities. Throughout the 2020-21 Academic Year, this addendum was modified several times to reflect SUNY policy and the evolving needs of the College. This policy has again been amended to reflect the College’s Fall 2021 COVID-19 Plan and will continue to be updated throughout the academic year as necessary. Returning students will note that some of the prior expectations have been eased for vaccinated individuals. In addition, the uniform sanctioning guidelines established by SUNY during the Fall 2021 Semester, and subsequently incorporated into the Code of Conduct, are no longer in effect. The expectations below shall take precedence over any contradictory language within the Code of Conduct. Section 3.5 d. Public Health Emergency Safeguards: All students, commensurate with their vaccination status and setting, are responsible for actively complying with the precautions the College has established to protect against the spread of COVID-19. Such mitigations may include the use of personal protective equipment (PPE); observing physical/social distancing; complying with all expectations concerning gatherings and hosting guests; quarantining or isolating as directed; and participating in testing and daily screenings.

  • ('Gang-Stalking'): a Content Analysis of Subjective Experiences
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article The Phenomenology of Group Stalking (‘Gang-Stalking’): A Content Analysis of Subjective Experiences Lorraine Sheridan 1,* , David V. James 2 and Jayden Roth 1 1 School of Psychology, Curtin University, Perth, WA 6102, Australia; [email protected] 2 Theseus Risk, Cavalier Court, Cheltenham SN14 6LH, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 12 March 2020; Accepted: 3 April 2020; Published: 6 April 2020 Abstract: Epidemiological data suggest that as many as 0.66% of adult women and 0.17% of adult men in the western world may suffer the subjective experience of being group-stalked (‘gang stalked’) at some point in their lives. Yet the gang stalking experience has been subject to little scientific study. This paper reports an attempt to elicit the core phenomena involved in gang-stalking by allowing them to emerge de novo through the qualitative analysis of accounts of individuals who describe being gang-stalked. Fifty descriptions of gang-stalking that satisfied study inclusion criteria were identified from the internet and subjected to content analysis. Twenty-four core phenomena were elicited, together with 11 principal sequelae of the experience of being gang-stalked. These were then divided into groups, producing a framework for the phenomena of the gang-stalking experience. The results were compared with frequencies of the same categories of experience then extracted from the original data of the only previous study on gang-stalking phenomena. Whilst the methodology of the current study was more rigorous, the core phenomena were similar in each.

Download date 10/10/2021 06:30:47 Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/10150/288336 INFORMATION TC USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material.

  • Legal Corner
    Legal Corner Dave Emmert General Counsel, Indiana School Boards Association Feel painted into the corner by certain legal issues? The paint may be dryer than you think if the terrain of the law is known. This column is intended to discuss appropriate considerations to resolve a certain problem, and should not be viewed as legal advice. What should be considered in revising student discipline handbooks to more effectively address violent behavior? 1. Elementary school handbooks are in the greatest need of review and upgrade. They are often deficient because of the failure to list a sufficient number of grounds for suspension and expulsion. Failure to include the types of conduct that may lead to suspension or expulsion means that a student may not be legally disciplined. It is advisable to use the comprehensive language of high school handbooks when listing the grounds for discipline at the elementary level. 2. Immediately following the list of specific grounds for suspension and expulsion, be sure to state the ground that is addressed at IC 20-8.1-5.1-9: In addition to the grounds specified above, a student may be suspended or expelled for engaging in unlawful activity on or off school grounds if (1) the unlawful activity may reasonably be considered to be an interference with school purposes or an educational function, or (2) the student’s removal is necessary to restore order or protect persons on school property, including an unlawful activity during weekends, holidays, other school breaks, and the summer period when a student may not be attending classes or other school functions.
