Standards for Community Living

Barry University is a community of people from diverse cultural, racial, economic, and ethnic backgrounds. Given this diversity, resident students have an opportunity to learn about individuality and life choices and how they impact other people. Residents can best learn from one another in an atmosphere of positive encouragement and mutual respect.

Bigotry and hatred will be given no home within our university housing community. Verbal or written abuse, threats, intimidation, and violence, are not acceptable behaviors and there is zero tolerance for such behavior. Excuses, including alcohol or substance abuse as an excuse, reason or rationale for such behavior, will not be accepted.

We strive to create and maintain a community that is free of harassment, intimidation and/or humiliation of our residents and staff. It is our belief that actions demonstrate a commitment to respecting the differences among individuals. On-campus living provides students with opportunities for developing skills and abilities as productive citizens of the future.
