Cell Phones and Other Electronic Devices

Cell phones and other electronic devices must be turned off in classes, lectures, and other law school presentations or formal activities. If an emergency situation requires a cell phone to be on, it must be placed on a silent mode, and the student should exit the classroom as quietly as possible to take the call outside. Students should remember that cell phone conversations can be extremely distracting to others, and they should not engage in conversations where those who are studying or working may be disturbed.

With the exception of a laptop running the approved exam software, students may not have cell phones or other electronic devices of any kind at their seat or on their person at any time during examinations, unless the professor has expressly designated them as authorized materials.
