Student Conduct holds jurisdiction over student organization conduct matters. The NIU Student Code of Conduct is applicable to student organizations and outlines the rights and responsibilities of a recognized student organization. Additionally, the Student Code of Conduct outlines the procedure which will be started when Student Conduct responds to an alleged conduct violation. If a student organization violates the student code of conduct, it can lose its recognition by the university. In addition to the NIU Student Code of Conduct, student organizations are required to comply with all other applicable NIU policies and procedures.
As of the end of fall 2025, there are no active conduct cases of hazing involving any recognized student organization at the university. We remain committed to fostering a safe, respectful, and inclusive community, and we continue to monitor and address any concerns in accordance with university policy and state law.
