Obliging students

"It is the responsibility of all faculty, staff, and students to keep the ideals of justice uppermost in the minds of the members of the University so that they may be achieved."

"Principles of a Just Community." http://www.albany.edu/undergraduate_bulletin_archive/2010-2011/principles_of_just_community.html

"Standards of Academic Integrity

"Throughout their history, institutions of higher learning have viewed themselves and have been viewed by society as a community of persons not only seeking truth and knowledge, but seeking them in a truthful and ethical fashion. Indeed, the institution traditionally trusted by the public and the one to which it most often turns when unbiased, factual information is needed is the university. Thus, how a university behaves is as important as what it explores and learns.

"The University at Albany expects all members of its community to conduct themselves in a manner befitting this tradition of honor and integrity. They are expected to assist the University by reporting suspected violations of academic integrity to appropriate faculty and/or administration offices. Behavior that is detrimental to the University’s role as an educational institution is unacceptable and requires attention by all citizens of its community."

"Undergraduate Academic Regulations." http://www.albany.edu/undergraduate_bulletin_archive/2011-2012/regulations.html

When students are obligated to "keep the ideals of justice uppermost in the minds of the members of the University" (freedom of speech, due process, right to be free of sexual harassment and retaliation for reporting sexual harassment), and when students are obligated to report "violations of academic integrity," and "[b]ehavior detrimental to the University's role as an educational institution requires attention of all citizens of its community", why does UAlbany retaliate when students oblige UAlbany by doing just that and objecting to UAlbany's retaliation? When will "all citizens" of UAlbany's community address the systemic problems of academic dishonesty, faculty ethics violations, sexual harassment, discrimination, retaliation, etc. that characterize UAlbany's behavior?
