All students desiring to utilize campus parking facilities must register their vehicles with Parking and Transportation Services and pay a registration fee. A student desiring to register a motor vehicle not owned by himself or herself, a spouse, a parent, or a guardian must obtain special permission from Parking and Transportation Services.
Freshmen operating vehicles on campus are required to register their vehicles with Parking and Transportation Services. Freshmen vehicles are not permitted to park on the main campus during the week. On Friday afternoon at 4:00 p.m., registered freshmen vehicles may park in resident areas around the residence halls. Freshmen vehicles must be off campus by 12:00 midnight Sunday evening. There are thirty‑minute metered loading zones located at the residence halls which freshmen vehicles are permitted to utilize as long as the meter is activated.
The university's towing policy is strictly enforced. Parking on campus is by permit only. Unregistered vehicles parking on campus may be towed; vehicles with three or more uncleared parking tickets may be towed; and any vehicle illegally parked in a towing enforced zone may be towed.
There is no overnight visitor parking in the university residence hall areas between Sunday midnight and 4:00 p.m. Friday.

Students enrolled at East Carolina University are expected to uphold at all times standards of integrity and behavior that will reflect credit upon themselves, their families, and East Carolina University. Students are also expected to behave with propriety and to respect the rights and privileges of others. They are expected to abide by the laws of the city, state, and nation and by all rules and regulations of East Carolina University. Failure to do so may result in their being disciplined by or separated from the university.
Registration at the university implies the student's acceptance of the published academic regulations and all other rules found in any official publication or announcements. Conduct regulations, including the academic integrity policy, are described in the Clue Book.
Academic integrity is expected of every East Carolina University student. Academically violating the Honor Code consists of the following: cheating, unauthorized aid or assistance or the giving or receiving of unfair advantage on any form of academic work; plagiarism, copying the language, structure, ideas, and/or thoughts of another and adopting those as one's original work; falsification, statement of untruth, either spoken or written, regarding any circumstances relating to academic work; and attempting any act which if completed would constitute an academic integrity violation as defined above.
Procedures governing academic integrity violations are described in the Clue Book and in the Faculty Manual.
The East Carolina University Policy on Substance Abuse details the university's commitment to prevent substance abuse through education and counseling and its duty to discipline those members of the academic community who engage in illegal alcohol and/or drug‑related activities. (The text of this policy is set out in the appendix.) East Carolina University, in keeping with its primary purpose of education, will utilize educational strategies as its major approach to drug use and abuse problems. Educational and counseling programs are available to all members of the academic community.
Students, faculty members, administrators, and other employees are responsible, as citizens, for knowing about and complying with the provisions of the North Carolina law that make it a crime to possess, sell, deliver, or manufacture those drugs designated collectively as "controlled substances" in Article 5 of Chapter 90 of the North Carolina General Statutes. Any member of the university community who violates that law is subject to both prosecution and punishment by the civil authorities and to disciplinary proceedings by the university. Penalties will be imposed by the university in accordance with procedural safeguards applicable to disciplinary actions against students, faculty members, administrators, and other employees. These penalties to be imposed by the university may range from written warnings with probationary status to expulsions from enrollment and discharges from employment.
