Manage Student Conduct Roles

Important

Information and features vary according to the roles to which you belong and the permissions associated with those roles. For more information, contact your module manager or your campus support team.

Users with the necessary permissions can manage student conduct roles and permissions from within the Student Conduct Administration Hub. When you manage roles in this hub, the list defaults to display only Student Conduct roles, so there's no need to filter the list to find the roles you need.

To access the Student Conduct Roles page, navigate to the Student Conduct Administration Hub page, then select Admin options > Manage student conduct roles from the Hub options drop-down.

To manage student conduct roles and permissions from the Student Conduct Roles page, you must be in the Student Conduct - Director Access by Department role and have all Student Conduct Roles permissions enabled.

All permissions are enabled by default for this role.

  1. From the Student Conduct Administration Hub page, select Admin options > Manage student conduct roles from the Hub options drop-down. The Student Conduct Roles page opens.

    The Student Conduct Roles page lists all existing Student Conduct roles, both default and custom. For each role, the list displays the module the role is associated with; the role name; the number of active users assigned to the role; a brief description of the role; and, in the case of custom roles, the role it was copied from.

  2. To filter the list:

    1. Select the checkbox next to one or more filters in the Student Conduct Roles Filter.

    2. Enter or select criteria for each filter.

    3. Click Apply.

    4. To save a filter that you use frequently, select the criteria, click Save as, and enter a name for the filter at the prompt. To make it the default filter, select Set as Default, then click Save.

To create a new Student Conduct role, you'll need to choose a role template to base the new role on, then customize the name, description, and permissions to suit your needs.

  1. On the Student Conduct Roles page, click Create role. The Create Role wizard opens to the first step, Choose Template.

  2. From the Role Template drop-down, select the role you want to base the new role on. The New Role Name and New Role Description fields automatically fill with the name and description of the original role.

  3. In the New Role Name field, update the role name to one that is easily recognizable. The name can be based on how roles and positions are set up at your school and should distinguish how this role differs from the role template.

  4. In the New Role Description field, update the description to distinguish it from the role template you used. You might choose to highlight permissions or features available to users assigned to the role.

  5. Click Save and continue to move to the Define Access step.

  6. Select the checkboxes for the permissions you want to enable for this role.

  7. Click Create role to save the changes and return to the Student Conduct Roles page.

  8. To assign users to the new role:

    1. On the Student Conduct Roles page, select Edit from the Options drop-down next to the role you just created. The Edit page for the role opens.

    2. Select the Users tab.

    3. Click Add to Role. The Add to Role pop-up opens.

    4. Click in the Search Users by Name field, start typing the name of the user to be added to the role, and select from the names that appear.

      Note

      You can only select active users.

  4. In the New Role Description field, update the description to highlight permissions or features available to users assigned to the role. The description can help distinguish how the new role differs from the role being copied.

  5. Click Save and continue. The Define Access section opens.

    2. Select the Module Access tab.

    3. From the Access column, click No or Yes as appropriate to prohibit or grant access to the interactions associated with that module.

      Note

      For example, the Secondary Advisor - Access to Students by Academic Program role has students grouped by certifications, concentrations, minors, and programs. When you select the certifications group, you see a list of available certifications and can enable access to the appropriate ones.
