PLEASE READ: Annual Notificaitons
Guest Columnist: Jessica Carron, Assistant Dean of Students

Dear Students,
Each year at this time we provide you with (1) Annual Notifications, (2) Updated Institutional Policies, and (3) Reminders of Important Policies for your review and to stay informed. Thank you in advance for reviewing all sections carefully and understanding what is expected of you as a community member.
Annual Notifications:
This is the Annual Notification of the Student Code of Conduct and CAS College Policies. The purpose of the Code of Conduct at Lewis & Clark College is to establish clear expectations for behavior that fosters academic and communal integrity. We also encourage you to review the college’s Institutional Policies.
Updated Institutional Policies:
Recently updated this year, please take the time to review these policies in particular:
A special thanks to the students, faculty, and staff who served on committees to review both the Code of Conduct and various policies! If you are interested in serving on a committee to give feedback on the Code of Conduct or other policies, please email cace@lclark.edu to be added to our feedback listserv.
Reminders:
For those of you who are living on campus this year, the Residential Handbook is also an important resource.
And for ALL students: for bias, Title IX, policy violations, or student welfare within our community, please report a concern here.
As we move into the second week of classes, we in the Division of Student Life hope that these notifications and reminders will assist you in being a more informed student in our academic community. Please reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Jessica Carron,
Assistant Dean of Campus Life

Attend the Tualatin Watershed Science Symposium!
Join us at the Tualatin Watershed Science Symposium: Headwaters to Confluence on May 2, 2026, at PCC Rock Creek.
Hosted by Tualatin Riverkeepers, this half-day event will bring together researchers, restoration practitioners, community scientists, and volunteers to share projects happening across the Tualatin River watershed—from Gaston to its confluence with the Willamette River in West Linn. Attendees will hear about wildlife monitoring, community science, and restoration efforts, and can join a guided nature walk through PCC’s restored wetlands and forests.
We’re excited to support this event and connect with others working to protect and restore the Tualatin River watershed.
