Community Standards & Student Advocacy

The department of Community Standards & Student Advocacy is determined to advocate for all students by assisting them in setting and achieving their academic, professional, and personal goals, through creating an environment that ensures all students feel safe, respected, and valued with adherence of Daemen University’s policies, procedures, and Code of Conduct.

One of our goals in advocacy is to enlighten students in any way, shape, or form.  We want every student to have a remarkable academic career coupled with wonderful experiences outside of the classroom with minimal limitations.  We implement a model of education-centric restorative justice within our community standards and conduct process that is equitable to all students.

This site should be able to help students navigate answers regarding stress, crisis, how to report, Student’s Bill of Rights, Title IX, Clery Act, the Reach Out app, and a myriad of relatable topics.  

We want to provide additional information on On & Off Campus resources that may help all Daemen community members make informed, healthy, and responsible decisions.

In addition, we offer a chance for students to play a role in helping Daemen facilitate the optimal college experience.  Students will be able to submit requests, opinions, concerns, suggestions, or give a shoutout to a staff member through our Student Virtual Suggestion Box. Each submission will be taken into careful consideration by our team.  Students also have the option of reaching out to our team directly for more information.

Regardless of the services sought, the office and staff remain respectful of the privacy of each and every student. Additionally, staff will remain in compliance with Daemen's policies & practices. Visit the Registrar for more information on student, parent and faculty/staff rights.
