Compliance with Academic Regulations
Students are reminded that it is their responsibility to familiarize themselves with the academic regulations and requirements of Trinity College, to take care to conform to them, and to seek official clarification of policies if they are in doubt as to their meaning or reach. Failure to act in accordance with academic regulations and requirements can have serious consequences.
Under no circumstances may students ignore official rules and requirements, as this is a breach of the Duke Community Standard and a “failure to comply,” as described in the Duke Community Standard in Practice. Students who ignore official rules and requirements will at the least have their registration for the next academic semester blocked by their academic dean until after the close of the last window of that registration period. They could also be subject to involuntary withdrawal for a period of two semesters and/or referred to the Undergraduate Judicial Board for possible disciplinary action.
