在一个多元化的社区, 分歧和冲突, with varying degrees of seriousness, 是不可避免的. The college strongly encourages informal resolution of disputes and conflicts. Many issues are best resolved by direct communication between the individuals involved, sometimes with the help of a third party. 社区 members are expected to engage in good faith attempts to mediate their differences. 为此目的, all members of the Smith community are encouraged to use the deans, 学术系主任, supervisors and the 工作人员 members listed on this site to discuss concerns and seek resolution to differences.
