DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR
While supporting freedom of expression and peaceful dissent, the University, in the interest of orderly operation and preservation of an environment favorable to productive study, has adopted a policy prohibiting disruptive behavior on the part of any student, faculty member, administrator, or employee.
All segments of the academic community are under a strong obligation and have a mutual responsibility to protect the campus community from disorderly, disruptive, or obstructive actions which interfere with academic pursuits of teaching, learning, and other campus activities. Any student, faculty member, administrator, or employee, acting individually or in concert with others, who obstructs or disrupts, or attempts to obstruct or disrupt any teachings, research, administrative, disciplinary or public service activity or any other activity authorized to be discharged or held on any campus of the University System of Georgia is considered by the Board of Regents to have committed an act of gross irresponsibility and shall be subject to disciplinary procedures, possibly resulting in dismissal or termination of employment.
