St George's College takes the view that students are role models in the community and as such should be aware that their behaviour at all times must be exemplary. Therefore all students should project a positive image within their University of choice and to the general public. The following are unacceptable:

• Offensive and foul language.
• Excessive noise disturbing community life, any anti-social behaviour.
• Any illegal behaviour, particularly:
• Binge drinking or drinking under-age.
• Possession, use or dealing in illegal drugs.
• Violent behaviour.
• Discriminatory language or behaviour (based on gender, creed, culture, race or general vilification in any form).
• The possession or use of a fire arm or any devise created to cause injury or menace.
• Breaking College By-Laws.
• Vandalism of any kind.
• Harassment of any kind.

Out of Bounds Areas

All roofs, towers, parapets, and roof spaces are dangerous and are, consequently, strictly out of bounds.

Unauthorised Activities

Neither the College nor its insurers take any responsibility for death, injury, loss or damage which occurs as a result of, or in connection with, any unauthorised activity. Persons involved in such activities are liable to fines, suspension or expulsion. An unauthorised activity is any activity not authorised by the Warden. This means that any person or groups of persons arranging, contributing or taking part in any such activity will be personally responsible and therefore, individually liable for any actions for damage, injury, or death either directly or indirectly caused by or in the course of such activity, without the benefit of insurance.

Alcohol in the College

The College Club runs events throughout the academic year and at such events alcohol is provided to undergraduates who are over the age of eighteen. Students need to note that the consumption of alcoholic beverages is not permitted in any communal room or in the College grounds except where the Warden permits it and under conditions imposed by the Warden. (By-Law 2: 5.2.3)

Smoking
The College's stance on smoking is currently under review. Students are advised that as of 2003 smoking will only be considered acceptable in the BBQ area. The College may soon become a smoke free area. According to University By-Laws there will be no smoking within University Buildings. St. George's College is within The University of Western Australia.

Tutors

There are currently several tutors at the College. As a Fresher you will be assigned to a tutor. The tutor will be there as a help, guide and encourager mainly during your first year in the College. You will meet with the tutor both individually and as part of a group to share your experiences as a Fresher in both College and University life.

Academic:

Tutors play a vital role in maintaining St George's College as an academic community. Tutors encourage students in their academic work in three ways;

• A small group of first year students called a General Tutorial Group is allocated to each Tutor. The General Tutorial Group provides opportunities for students to adjust to University life, gain more efficient study skills and bring any difficulties to the attention of the Tutor.
• Tutors may assist students on a one-to-one basis with issues to do with study or in their particular field of expertise.
• The College offers tutorials in particular subjects according to need. The initiative to request subject tutorials lies with the student. Tutors encourage members of their General Tutorial Group to take advantage of subject tutorials as needed. As a rule, a minimum number of students is required to commence a subject tutorial and a majority of students involved in a subject tutorial must attend each week or the tutorial is withdrawn.

Pastoral:

The role of "guide, philosopher and friend" is very important particularly for first year students.

Participation in College Life:

Tutors become involved in the various activities of the College, including those generated through the Junior and Senior Common Rooms. For example they attend all tutor meetings, the orientation programme at the beginning of the academic year, functions such as formal dinners, College Ball, College Play and a number of inter college sporting activities.

Disciplinary Responsibilities:

Tutors operate by example and encouragement, but will not tolerate anti-social behaviour.
Tutors will intervene for example:

• To prevent damage to College property.
• Where a lack of consideration is being shown for others as seen in the code of conduct.

Students are responsible to themselves and their neighbour. Behaviour that is not mindful of one's own need to study, or the needs of the community as a whole, will not be tolerated.
