Drug-Free Environment
Excerpt from Policy
Bellevue Community College intends to provide a drug-free, healthful, safe, and secure work and educational environment. Each employee is expected to report to work in an appropriate mental and physical condition to perform his/her assigned duties. Each student is expected to be in an appropriate mental and physical condition to participate fully in the learning process.
The unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation, possession, or use of a controlled substance in or on Bellevue Community College owned or controlled property, or while conducting Bellevue Community College business, is prohibited. Any disciplinary action for employees or students will be decided on a case-by-case basis depending upon the specific circumstances.
Disciplinary action resulting from a drug-related student code violation may range from strict discipline to expulsion from the college and denial of future registration. Students who feel they might have a problem with drug and/or alcohol abuse are encouraged to make an appointment to speak with a counselor in the Counseling Center.
