The following outcomes may be imposed for student misconduct at Rhodes:
- Warning: This outcome will be used in cases in which the College determines that the appropriate lesson has been learned and conclude the matter with a formal letter of warning.
- Disciplinary Probation: A written notification for violation of specified regulations. Probation is for a designated period of time and includes the probability of more severe disciplinary outcomes if the student is found to violate any institutional regulation(s) during the probationary period. Students on disciplinary probation are considered not in good social standing with the College. Good Standing may be required for participation in certain campus activities. In addition, students not in good standing may have their conduct reviewed for leadership or employment positions on campus.
- Loss of Privileges: a temporary or permanent restriction of a student’s access to certain rights, activities, or resources within the College community. This includes, but is not limited to: loss of guest privileges in the residence halls, restricted access to common areas and/or campus spaces, revocation of parking/driving privileges on campus, ineligibility to participate in or college-sponsored events or programs, restriction from holding leadership roles, etc.
- Fines: Previously established and published fines may be imposed.
- Restitution: Compensation for loss, damage, or injury. This may take the form of appropriate service and/or monetary or material replacement.
- Discretionary Outcomes: Work assignments, service to the college, education, referral to counseling, or other related discretionary assignments (such assignments must have the approval of the OCS Administrator or their designee).
- No Contact: a preventative measure when alleged violation(s) of the Standards of Conduct are reported. At the discretion of the Director of Community Standards, or their designee, a NCO can be issued as a means of informal resolution. The NCO will usually state that the individual may have been involved in a situation where a violation of College policy occurred and prohibiting the individual from contacting another student(s).
- Residence Hall Suspension: Separation of the student from the residence halls for a definite period of time, after which the student is eligible to return. Conditions for readmission may be specified.

- College Suspension: Separation of the student from Rhodes College for a definite period of time, after which the student is eligible to return. Conditions for readmission may be specified. A student placed on suspension from the College as a result of a conduct outcome is not permitted on campus without permission from the Office of Community Standards, or their designee.
- College Expulsion: Indefinite separation of the student from Rhodes College. A student expelled from the College is permanently prohibited from being present on campus; no special requests for returning to campus will be considered.
More than one of the outcomes listed above may be imposed for any single violation.
