General Information and Procedures


Residential Village Policies

These policies are in place to assist residents in understanding what is necessary to create a safe, secure, and livable community. While most residents hold values that would naturally cause them to live by these policies, it is important they be written so all residents know what is expected from the community and its members.

All residential village policies are derivatives of Northern Kentucky University's Governing Regulations and/or Administrative Regulations or of Prohibited Conduct as outlined in the University Student Handbook. Students found in violation of any of these policies may be subject to disciplinary actions.
