Vandalism

The Student Government Association declaration regarding destruction of College property, personal property, and theft reads as follows:

Preventative

1. Students will have an incentive to report incidents of vandalism and theft. Vandalism is considered an act of intentional destruction of property or willful negligence of the preservation of property. A reward will be offered, in verifiable circumstances, for those who report such behavior. Such compensation will be available once the offender is caught. Confidentiality is of utmost importance in this matter.
2. Student Government Association members will encourage a policy of peer condemnation toward such offensive behavior. Vandalism and theft harm the entire Centre community and force each member to pay for the incidental expenses.

Punitive

1. Those that are found accountable for destruction of College or personal property or theft are responsible for the damages incurred. The offender will also be subject to a conduct hearing which may result in sanctions minimally including restitution.
2. When damage expenses total over $200, the violator is subject to a mandatory Student Judiciary hearing. Should the offender have multiple violations which add up to $200 or more, a mandatory Student Judiciary hearing is also required. At this point, the Student Judiciary will decide if further sanctions are required and may pursue any related infraction of student conduct regulations
3. The Student Life Office retains the right to remove and relocate an offender from any particular residence hall. An offender may also be banned from entering any residence hall per the Student Life Office.
