30.5.0 Chaperone Policy

Last Update:

All student trips outside St. Lawrence County must have chaperones accompany them on the trip. Chaperones must be SUNY Canton employees. Resident Assistants, work-study or other student workers will not be considered “SUNY Canton Employees” for this purpose. Any exceptions to this policy may be made by the Vice President for Student Affairs/Dean of Students in consultation with the appropriate department. The purpose of the chaperone is to ensure student safety and adherence to the stated purpose of the trip. The trip is considered a College function, therefore, covered by the SUNY Canton Code of Conduct.
