(c) Refraining from any conduct that would substantially disrupt or materially interfere with university operations;

(d) Refraining from any conduct that would cause harm to or endanger the health, safety, or welfare of other persons; and

(e) Complying with the rules, regulations, procedures, policies, standards of conduct, and orders of the university and its schools, colleges, departments, units, and programs.

(2) The disciplinary sanctions specified in WAC 478-120-040 may be imposed on any student or student organization found to have committed, to have assisted with the commission of, or to have attempted to commit any act of misconduct that is in violation of the general standards of conduct in subsection (1) of this section, or any of the prohibited conduct specified in WAC 478-120-024.
