Standards of Scholarship and Professionalism

Achieving the mission and goals of the University of Chicago and Chicago Booth depends on the manner in which each member of our community
conducts themselves, both within the school and when representing Chicago Booth externally.

Classroom, extracurricular, and professional relationships must be founded on the values and principles of mutual respect, and also on the affirmation of the legal rights of all members of our community. As members of the Chicago Booth community, students (along with staff, administrators, faculty) are expected to conduct themselves and communicate in a manner consistent with the values of academic, personal, and professional integrity.

This includes, but is not limited to, professional conduct with faculty, other students, and staff through the completion of course requirements, classroom behavior, and extracurricular activities sponsored by Chicago Booth or Chicago Booth-approved student groups, alumni, other constituent groups, and members of the student body.

The Chicago Booth community is committed to building and sustaining an environment in which its members can freely work together. We want to promote and capitalize on our rich diversity as a source of intellectual and interpersonal openness, while recognizing that differences will always be present. All members of our community must be treated with the same level of respect. Each member of the community is responsible for the protection of the dignity and the rights of other members.

This section includes, but is not limited to, the standards of scholarship and professionalism to which each Chicago Booth student must adhere. Violation of these standards is cause for disciplinary review.
