COMMUNITY STANDARDS GUIDELINES. Residence is a diverse community of distinct individuals from many different backgrounds, we need to have an agreement outlining the type of behaviour that is appropriate and the type of behaviour that is not acceptable. Therefore, in order to maintain a comfortable living environment and to protect individual rights within the residence, we have developed a set of guidelines to ensure that Community Standards are met. Residents are expected to use reasonable foresight to choose actions that do not place the safety or well-being of themselves or others at risk. These standards and regulations are an important part of this Contract. Violations, or actions that contribute to or facilitate the violation, of any of the following regulations are a breach of this Contract. The University will not accept ignorance, anger, alcohol or substance use as an excuse, reason, or rationale for violating Residence Community Standards. The University will not accept ignorance, anger, alcohol or substance use as an excuse, reason, or rationale for violating Residence Community Standards. The rules fall into two classes: a) policies that govern the way we treat each other and b) policies that govern the way we treat property. Basically, our Community Standards operate on the following principle: Each resident has a responsibility to respect the rights of themselves, others, and the community.

In order to maintain a comfortable living environment and to protect individual rights within the residence, we have developed a set of guidelines outlining the types of behavior that are appropriate and the types of behavior that are not acceptable. Residents are expected to use reasonable foresight in ensuring their actions do not place the safety or well-‐being of themselves or others at risk. These regulations are an important part of this Contract and are meant to ensure that Community Standards are met. Violation of Residence Community Standards, or actions that contribute to or facilitate the violation of any of the following regulations, are a breach of this Contract and may result in disciplinary action. The University will not accept ignorance, anger, alcohol or substance use as an excuse, reason, or rationale for violating Residence Community Standards. The regulations fall into two classes:
a) policies that govern the way we treat each other and b) policies that govern the way we treat property. Basically, our Community Standards operate on the following principle: Each resident has a responsibility to respect the rights of themselves, others, and the community. • If an individual’s actions benefit one person, but hurt everyone else or infringe upon the rights of others, disciplinary action may result. • Similarly, if a group—even a majority of residents—behaves in a way that threatens, xxxxx, or diminishes an individual (including harassment or hazing), disciplinary action may result. • We expect each student to demonstrate tolerance, consideration, and concern for his or her fellow residents. If somebody is likely to suffer physical, emotional, or material harm as a result of something you plan to do, it is not appropriate. • Like most communities, Student Residences recognizes that we need rules to protect both common property and private property. • The cost of willful or negligent damage will be assigned to those who are responsible. • Theft, vandalism, littering, and misuse or misappropriation of University property threaten the general well-‐being of the community and may constitute grounds for expulsion. Student Residences and all residents must abide by all federal, provincial, and local government laws, regulations, and bylaws, as well as rules, regulations, policies and procedures, including, but not limited to, those issued by the University.
COMMUNITY STANDARDS GUIDELINES. Residence is a diverse community of distinct individuals from many different backgrounds. In order to maintain a comfortable living environment and to protect individual rights within the residence, we have developed a set of guidelines outlining the types of behaviour that are acceptable and the types of behaviour that are unacceptable. Residents are expected to use reasonable foresight in ensuring their actions do not place the safety or well-being of themselves or others at risk. Unacceptable behaviour is any behaviour that contravenes these guidelines. These behaviours can be identified and addressed by anyone in the residence community. Unacceptable behaviour may come to the University’s attention in a variety of ways, including observation by Residence staff, Security Services staff, Facilities Management staff, Dining Services staff or other students, or through photo, Internet, social media, mobile device or video evidence. Anything posted online that comes to our attention (e.g., Facebook, YouTube, Twitter) will be used as evidence in an investigation. Residence Life staff, Facilities Management staff, or any other University staff including contractors who work in the residences, Security Services and the Winnipeg Police Department, can document unacceptable behaviour within residence.
