As a member of the Chicago State University Community, I pledge the following:
I will practice personal and academic integrity.
Dishonesty of any kind including the practice of plagiarism or copying another person’s scholarship, lying, deceit, excuse-making, and disloyalty in personal relationships is not acceptable.
I will respect the dignity of all persons.
Behaviors which compromise or demean the dignity of individuals or groups, including hazing, intimidating, taunting, teasing, baiting, ridiculing, insulting, harassing, and discriminating are not acceptable.
I will respect the rights and property of others.
All forms of theft, vandalism, arson, misappropriation, malicious damage to, and desecration or destruction of property are not acceptable. Any behavior that violates a persons’ rights to move about freely, to express themselves appropriately, and to enjoy privacy is not acceptable. I will report without fear of retaliation any actions that violate our culture of ethics and will protect the rights of others who do the same.
I will respect cultural diversity and accept and value the differences of others.
Denial of equal rights and opportunities for all regardless of their age, sex, race, religion, disability, ethnic heritage, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, and gender equity, political, social, or other affiliation or disaffiliation is not acceptable.
I will respect basic human rights.
Behaviors which are inconsiderate, insensitive, inhospitable, or inciteful, or which unjustly or arbitrarily inhibit another’s abilities to feel safe or welcomed in the pursuit of appropriate academic goals are not acceptable.
I will pursue personal and academic excellence.
These allegiances obligate us to be responsible for our own actions and deeds, take ownership of our education, pursue scholarships, and abide by all university rules and procedures.
I will abide by the principles of this code and will encourage others to do the same.
