The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) is in compliance with Principle 3.9.1 because the Office of Student Development issues the UAH Student Handbook 2004-2006 Chapter 7, Article II of the Handbook details many of the rights and responsibilities accorded to the student body. This article outlines the role of the Student Government Association (SGA), provides a listing of academic freedoms and responsibilities, and conveys students' rights regarding confidentiality of records, freedom of inquiry and expression, and freedom to organize. The related responsibilities of the student to uphold the rights of others are also included in this section. It also addresses the grievance procedure for violation of these rights.
