General University Regulations and Policies

It is the policy of The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill that educational and employment decisions be based on individuals' abilities and qualifications and not on factors or personal characteristics that have no connection to academic abilities or job performance. Among the traditional irrelevant factors are race, sex, religion, and national origin. It is the policy of The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill that an individual's sexual orientation be treated in the same manner. This policy prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation does not apply to the University's relationship with outside organizations, including the federal government, the military, ROTC, and private employers.

The student body of the University is self-governing. The functions of this government are both disciplinary and constructive. Students enrolled in the School of Dentistry are regarded as members of the student body of The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and are held responsible for conducting themselves in conformity with the moral and legal restraints found in any law-abiding community. Students are, moreover, subject to the regulations of the student government under the Honor Code and the Campus Code. Information on these codes may be found in the Undergraduate Bulletin Issue of the University Record.

The dental student body has its own honor court, which functions within the framework of the University Student Government.
