Dean of Students
The Office of the Dean of Students serves as a resource to the entire University community through its efforts to meet the educational and developmental needs of students related to community standards, conflict management and resolution, civility, and respect for self and others.
Members of the campus community must act out of mutual respect to establish an atmosphere of trust.
Therefore, Barry University expects its members to treat one another with sensitivity, consideration, understanding, tolerance, and an active concern for the welfare of others.
Some of the services offered by the Office of the Dean of Students include advocating for all students, educational programs, faculty-student collaboration, conflict resolution, and the disciplinary process.

Disciplinary Process
As a Catholic and Dominican university, Barry stands for the dignity and worth of every person. We believe, therefore, in values that foster the human respect needed for people to live, work, study, and recreate together as a community. The student discipline system exists to handle violations of the University's rules and regulations. This system is based on a philosophy of fairness for all parties concerned in any situation involving non-compliance with a University policy or regulation. -
Educational Programs
Throughout the academic year, the office offers programs offering information on topics of importance to students. All students are urged to attend these programs. They are a good way to learn about and share solutions on issues that affect college students. Some of these issues include: alcohol awareness, drug awareness, sexual assault, domestic violence, time management, and personal safety. -
