Student Conduct and Care is a unit of Student Affairs, comprising Student Conduct, Non-Academic Misconduct Intake, and Care Support Services for students. Our team works with campus partners and students to support a thriving and safe Queen's community by responding to and resolving non-academic misconduct, and by providing services to support holistic student success and well-being.
Student Conduct
Student Conduct includes the Student Conduct Office as well as the Non-Academic Misconduct Intake Office (NAMIO).
The NAMIO handles referrals and intake of student cases into the University's Non-Academic Misconduct system. The Student Conduct Office manages and investigates serious cases of non-academic misconduct, including those that fall under the Policy on Sexual Misconduct and Sexual Violence Involving Students, and the Harassment and Discrimination Prevention and Response Policy.
Non-Academic Misconduct Intake Office (NAMIO)
For students who encounter the non-academic misconduct system, intake and referral is handled by the NAMIO.
Student Conduct Office
For students involved in Category 2 misconduct, the Student Conduct Office manages and investigates cases.
Student Care
The Care team connects students to a variety of resources on and off campus, and provides non-clinical support around understanding and coping with stress and obstacles related to being a Queen’s student, living away from home, and everyday life. We answer student, parent, and community concerns.
Some students are referred to the Care team by faculty and staff who are concerned about a student's well-being and their ability to navigate resources and supports. The Care Team Coordinator receives referrals and assesses to determine the best available resources. Where there is an indication of a pattern or emergent concern for disruptive conduct, self-harm, or risk of violence to the community, Care referrals will be assessed and reviewed by the University's Assessment and Care Team (ACT).
CARE Support Services
An early alert system that helps identify students who are struggling and connect them to resources early on.
Assessment and Care Team (ACT)
A group of campus professionals who meet regularly to support students by detecting early indicators of potential concerning behaviour, disruptive conduct, self-harm, and risk of violence to others.
