3. Student misconduct: have your say
Regulation 7, the procedure under which student misconduct is managed, is being revised and we would really value feedback from students and staff. We are particularly looking at areas of accessibility, academic misconduct, sexual misconduct, racial harassment, and online behaviours. We would particularly welcome responses from those belonging to underrepresented groups, who we recognise are often disproportionately impacted by some of these issues. Have your say on Regulation 7 (login required).
