In most cases, when an alleged violation of the Code of Conduct occurs, a report is submitted from Campus Police, the Office of Residence Life and Summer Programs, Contract Security, or one of the other offices within the Department of Student Life. However, any member of the Presbyterian College community may report an alleged violation by contacting the Department of Student Life at extension 8378 or by submitting a written report to the Dean of Student Life.
