Texas Tech University is in compliance with Comprehensive Standard 3.9.1. 

The 2004-2005 Student Affairs Handbook, available in pdf form at (http://www.studentaffairs.ttu.edu/publications/student_handbook0405.pdf), contains a clear statement of student rights and responsibilities on pages 8-9. The statement includes sections on citizenship (including comments on academic freedom of students), academic integrity, rules governing unruly or disruptive behavior, and financial responsibility, and certain other student rights and responsibilities. 

 The Code of Student Conduct, Part IX of the Student Affairs Handbook, pp. 19-28 (http://www.studentaffairs.ttu.edu/publications/student_handbook0405.pdf), also spells out various forms of student misconduct, along with the procedures for determining culpability for violating the code and penalties to be assessed.  

Students have the right to appeal a grade they believe to have been unfairly awarded. The Student Grade Appeal policy is O.P. 34.03 (http://www.depts.ttu.edu/opmanual/OP34.03.htm).
