  3. Role of Program Director • Preparedness • Point of contact • Monitor, address, and resolve issues • Consult as needed with CUAbroadand DOS professional staff

  4. Addressing issues • If an issue comes up: • Address the student, at least preliminarily, by meeting with him/her & discussing the situation • Consult with CUAbroad and DOS staff regarding appropriate follow-up; CUAbroad will involve other offices at CUA as necessary • Document follow-up interventions accordingly, and forward all written documentation to Omar Torres (torres@cua.edu)

  5. Code of Student Conduct • Primarily a procedural document • Code does not directly apply overseas in that some policies do not easily translate overseas • Standards of behavior for a study abroad trip must be made clear to participants before they depart for their respective program • Program directors are expected to have discussions about standards of behaviors before students go abroad

  6. Behavioral background checks • Conducted by the Office of the Dean of Students • “Good disciplinary/student conduct standing” • Program director and CUAbroad, with or without assistance from DOS, should speak with the student to ensure that he/she is clear on behavioral expectations for those with a history of poor choices.
