However, students may be reluctant to get help because of concerns that their own behavior may be a violation of the Code of Student Conduct. To minimize any hesitation students and/or student organizations may have in obtaining help due to these concerns, the University has enacted the following “good samaritan” provision. For more information about the Good Samaritan Consideration, see the Code of Student Conduct, section 16 at: louisville.edu/dos/students/codeofconduct.
