Student Professional Behavior and Use of Technology

The policy of Palo Alto University requires that electronic devices be used in classes solely for classroom-relevant activities, such as note taking or presentations, or for instructor-advised internet access, such as to NIH websites. Using devices for personal use during class time is unprofessional and disruptive. Any student found engaging in the personal, non-academic use of devices during class time may face consequences that include grade penalization, Academic Training Committee (ATC) referral, or Student Evaluation Committee (SEC) referral for consideration of further disciplinary action.
