Vision

The Office of Community Standards will guide students in their ethical development, foster skills to civilly manage interpersonal conflicts, and strengthen students’ commitment to the campus community while promoting honesty and integrity.

Mission

The Office of Community Standards fosters an environment of care and support through preventive practices, constructive dialogue, and exercises in behavioral intervention and accountability. Through functional practices and programs employed within the Office of Community Standards, we will aid in student development through generating a better understanding of individual/societal respect and civility, helping students contribute to the UTEP community, improving critical thinking skills to avoid and/or correct negative behavior, and inspiring students to contribute to a safe and successful learning environment throughout the University campus.
