OFFICE OF THE CHANCELLOR

TO:           Members of the Washington University Community

FROM:      Mark S. Wrighton, Chancellor

DATE:        April 2002

RE:            Washington University Code of Conduct

As members of the Washington University community, we are all responsible for maintaining the highest ethical standards in our community and our professions, and for complying with all relevant laws and regulations.

In April 2000, the University, with the encouragement and guidance of the Board of Trustees, established a University Compliance Office. As part of this effort, a Washington University Code of Conduct has been created. The Code of Conduct is not a list of rules. It is a statement of the ethical and legal standards we use as the basis for our decisions and actions. All members of the University community should integrate these standards into their daily University activities.

The Code of Conduct consists of this message, a Statement of General Principles, Procedures for Reporting Violations or Concerns, and Questions and Answers.

The Code of Conduct may be revised from time to time. An up-to-date version of the Code will always be available on this Web site. 

If you have any questions about the Code of Conduct, please contact the University Compliance Office at (314) 362-4909 or universitycompliance@msnotes.wustl.edu.
