Hamline University has interests in controlling and maintaining university property. By this policy, the university prohibits camping on university property as provided in this policy.

Workday is Hamline University’s secure student information system. All current Hamline University students are expected to check Workday regularly for notifications and inbox to-do items. Students use Workday to find course sections prior to registration, register for classes, access their academic history and grades, track their academic progress, request official transcripts, make payments to student accounts, maintain current contact information, and various other functions. Students receive their Workday login information upon admission to Hamline.

Students may designate trusted individuals, such as parents or guardians, as Third Party Users in Workday. Creating a third party account allows students to release selected confidential information, such as financial aid awards, student account and billing information, grades, and class schedules, to the person or persons they choose. This confidential information is protected by federal law (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, commonly called FERPA) and Hamline University cannot release it to third parties without the student’s authorization.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), as amended, affords students certain rights in regard to their education records, including the right to inspect, review, withhold disclosure of and request an amendment to directory information. The act also governs release of student information and retention of records.

All degree-seeking students are required to use their official Hamline email (Google) accounts and are responsible for attending to any message sent to their Hamline account.

Hamline University requires that all instructors are qualified to teach. Hamline University follows recommendations from the Higher Learning Commission in the determination of the qualifying criteria.

The Preferred Vendor List for Graphic Design and Printing Services is designed to offer the university's collective business to a limited pool of vendors in order to achieve lower costs, greater efficiency, and higher quality. Marketing collects information and annually updates the group of printers and freelance graphic designers that the university will work with each fiscal year.

Hamline University at times recruits and successfully hires employees from outside of Minnesota, and when this happens, it may be necessary to support that new hire with an allocation of funding for relocation assistance.

Hamline University is concerned with preventing the use of illegal drugs and the abuse of alcohol and/or marijuana (recreational cannabis) on campus and in connection with activities sponsored by or affiliated with a Hamline University program, class or organization. Hamline also has an interest in educating students regarding the physical and psychological hazards of the use of illegal drugs and alcohol and other substance abuse, and increasing student sensitivity to the ways in which substance abuse interferes with the rights and privileges of others.

The Hamline University Game Day Tailgating Policy is designed to provide guidelines and regulations for the support of athlete parent groups and fans, and their pre and post-game gatherings during home games.
