UNC Will Report More About COVID Behavior Violations

Posted on Nov. 16, 2020

The University has announced it plans to share publicly more information about numbers of and disposition of violations of its community standards for behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to a campus message from the student affairs office, the University will share key data at carolinatogether.unc.edu on at least a quarterly basis (Feb. 1, May 1 and Aug. 1) that summarize community standards referrals for violations and outcomes.

About 80 percent of violation referrals between Aug. 1 and Oct. 31 resulted in findings of responsibility and a consequence for the students involved.

During that period:

• 456 incidents produced violation reports;

• 324 cases resulted in action, including written warnings, educational interventions, activity restrictions and probation;

• 56 students were evicted from campus housing; and

• 60 more ended in no violation, with 16 cases pending.
