Drake’s student handbook and campus resources outline the expectations, policies, and support systems that shape daily life on campus.
Whether you’re a student navigating community standards and student rights, or a faculty or staff member supporting students, these resources help create a safe, respectful, and well‑supported campus environment.
Student Handbook
All students are expected to read and understand the Student Handbook, which lays out these behavior expectations. Should act in a way that is not in accordance with this code, the Dean of Students Office will facilitate the appropriate disciplinary actions.
While we hope your time at Drake is largely positive, we are here to provide support should you encounter challenges or obstacles. Please contact the Dean of Students if you need assistance with student life issues.
Anonoymous Complaints
Drake University is committed to fair and ethical principles, practices and conduct in all business and academic relationships. The University’s trustees, officers, faculty and staff are expected to model the highest standards of ethical behavior and stewardship.
To facilitate and protect this commitment, the University has contracted with EthicsPoint to manage a confidential hotline which provides an anonymous way to report situations that may represent financial misconduct or violations of local, state or federal law or University policies.
