We who administer conduct standards for students at institutions of higher education recognize that a personal sense of honor sustains both individuals and their communities. We also recognize the need to provide a collective voice for the student conduct profession, and to provide professional development for student conduct practitioners. To support those supporting our mission, we formed the Association for Student Conduct Administration (ASCA) to foster the development and enforcement of standards of conduct and conflict resolution for students. Membership in ASCA is open to any person who has a legitimate interest in the mission, core values and activities of the Association.
