Always be the one who calls for help during an emergency. Access the ECU Student Code of Conduct at ecok.edu. The following is the Amnesty Policy from the 2024-2025 ECU Student Code of Conduct:

K. Amnesty Policy East Central University encourages:

1. The reporting of alleged sexual misconduct and,

2. Seeking emergency medical assistance for themselves or others in alcohol or drug-related medical emergencies.

The University also recognizes that the potential for disciplinary action by the Office of Student Development may act as a deterrent to reporting and/or seeking medical assistance. Therefore, the University may offer amnesty for minor conduct violations to:

a. A student who may have committed a minor violation at the time of a more serious incident, or;

b. A student who offers help to those who need medical assistance.

If amnesty is offered, educational options may be explored, but no conduct actions or record will result.
