HoosierMUN Misconduct Policy

HoosierMUN is committed to creating a conference environment that makes all delegates feel safe, respected, and included, both in and out of committee. Any form of misconduct will NOT be tolerated by the conference and will result in immediate action by the Secretariat. Depending on the severity of the infraction, the Secretariat reserves the right to remove the responsible delegate from committee for the rest of the conference and restrict them from entry to HoosierMUN for future conferences.
