"At the heart of the University experience is the interchange among
faculty, staff and students. This institution's faculty, more than any
of its other resources, make North Carolina State University a distinctive
setting for the pursuit of academic and professional interests. Accordingly,
faculty are encouraged to foster wholesome and appropriate relationships
with colleagues, students and staff at North Carolina State University."
[NCSU
Policy on Interpersonal Relationships]
"Students and staff tend to hold the academic profession in high esteem
and invest in relationships with faculty an extraordinary degree of
trust and respect. Interactions among members of the academic community
can and should be the occasion for enhancing freedom, demonstrating
integrity, and encouraging mutual respect. Only by upholding high standards
will University personnel be able to meet their collective obligation
to each other." [NCSU
Policy on Interpersonal Relationships]
"Faculty are responsible for evaluating student progress toward educational
goals on the basis of academic performance. Factors such as race, religion,
sex, age, national origin, political affiliation, ethnic identity, life
style, or other activities unrelated to academic achievement shall not
be considered in making academic evaluations of students. Discrimination
of a racial or sexual nature is a violation of Federal law and North
Carolina State University policy." [NCSU
Policy on Interpersonal Relationships]
"It is important that significant contributions from students be duly
acknowledged by the faculty. The guarantee of students' academic freedom
rests upon the assurance that their ideas are their own and will be
so acknowledged. While authorship prerogative will follow accepted norms
in each discipline, it is the obligation of the senior professional
in all collaborative projects to communicate the basis for attribution
to all participants at the beginning of the effort." [NCSU
Policy on Interpersonal Relationships]
"Any business relationship between a faculty/staff member and a student
for whom he/she has supervisory or educational responsibility should
be undertaken with due care. Both the fact and semblance of any exploitation
must be avoided. Compensation in any professional relationship outside
of the student-professor relationship should be commensurate with the
individual's training and experience." [NCSU
Policy on Interpersonal Relationships]
"While close working relationships are encouraged among faculty, staff
and students, it is improper for an individual to exercise direct supervisory,
instructional, and/or advising responsibilities, or participate in hiring,
retention, promotion, or award decisions, for someone with whom there
is a familial, romantic, and/or sexual relationship. Both the fact and
semblance of any exploitation must be avoided. The relative difference
in power--actual or perceived--in working relationships must be recognized
by faculty and staff and not be employed to anyone's advantage or disadvantage."
