Student Handbook, Resources, & Programmatic Reports

As a member of the Drake family, a certain standard of behavior is expected. You have a responsibility to contribute to the Drake community and help preserve a safe, welcoming, and positive environment.

All students are expected to read and understand the Student Handbook, which lays out these behavior expectations. Should act in a way that is not in accordance with this code, the Dean of Students Office will facilitate the appropriate disciplinary actions.

While we hope your time at Drake is largely positive, we are here to provide support should you encounter challenges or obstacles.  Please contact the Dean of Students if you need assistance with student life issues.
