College of Pharmacy Student Handbook 2024-2025

Barry and Judy Silverman College of Pharmacy 2024–2025 133 Class schedules are issued each semester, but the administration reserves the right to make changes, assign weekend and evening hours, or deviate from published schedules, as necessary. Dress Code Students in the Health Professions Division must maintain a neat and clean appearance befitting students attending professional school. Therefore, attire should convey a professional appearance whenever the student is on campus, in classes or laboratories, and on pharmacy practice experiences and authorized college activities. Pharm.D. students must wear their white clinical jacket at all times while on campus and at experiential sites. The dress code must be followed at all times. The following constitutes acceptable professional attire: • professional business dress, which includes shirt, tie, slacks, pants, skirt with blouse, dress, and appropriate shoes • matching scrub sets and shoes • approved Silverman College of Pharmacy and university apparel • NSU-issued identification badges These guidelines apply on campus from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, during any scheduled evening or weekend classes, and while on pharmacy practice experiences. Students inappropriately dressed or groomed may be requested to leave the campus. Students who are requested to leave campus due to dress code violations will receive an unexcused absence for any class or pharmacy practice experience missed in connection with such violation. Dress code violations will be considered improper professional behavior and may result in referral to the Student Professional Conduct Committee for potential disciplinary action. Classes requiring special dress (e.g., laboratory or physical assessment) will be the only exceptions to dress code allowed during regular school hours. Illegal, Inappropriate, and Unprofessional Behavior Illegal, inappropriate, and unprofessional behavior may result in disciplinary sanctions, up to and including dismissal. Students must adhere to the criminal offense reporting requirements in the NSU Student Handbook above. Examples of illegal, inappropriate, and unprofessional behavior include, but are not limited to, • a dishonest act of any nature • any conduct that violates the ethical and professional codes of conduct that govern the pharmacy profession as set forth in The Pledge of Professionalism entered into at the White Coat Ceremony • failure to attend any college event to which an RSVP is required and attendance is expected • disorderly conduct, public intoxication, and lewd, indecent, or obscene behavior on campus or at any college-sponsored or supervised function or event • disregard for authority
