91猫先生 Expectations
The 91猫先生 considers it essential that students exhibit respect and concern for the dignity, well-being and property of members of the local community. Students are expected to be respectful, truthful and fair in their dealings with others and to act in ways that are truly supportive of the ideals on which the 91猫先生 is founded. The Student Code of Conduct outlines the expectations for all students.
The Division of Student Affairs at the 91猫先生 has created a Living Off-Campus in the City of Scranton Guidance Sheet that outlines 91猫先生 expectations for students, explains 91猫先生 policies, and lists local laws and ordinances relevant for both students and landlords. This sheet is distributed at off-campus information sessions conducted each spring.
