Abstract

Arab American University in Palestine (AAUP) was founded on 28/9/2000 in the time of the second uprising as the first private university in Palestine. Consequently, a set of regulations and instructions were enacted to ensure the functioning of the university's facilities and academic process properly and smoothly. Therefore, the disciplinary violation system was prepared to control the students' offences (academic or behavioral) that might hinder the educational process. The study addressed the disciplinary violations in terms of the concept, components, and comparison to the crimes. The study surveyed a number of common disciplinary violations at the university whether academic or behavioral. The study concluded that the disciplinary violations are not controlled by the principle of legality of crime " No legal crime without a legal provision". Rather, it is controlled by the principle of legality of punishment “No legal punishment without a legal provision". The study recommended that there should be an outspoken provision to dismiss any student who insults or curses religions, angels, prophets, or Gods.
