From issue #341:

I briefly talked with Anwesha in student media:

Radio plays just follow the FCC guidelines (which I can look into)
Print has their own Code of Conduct handbook, and I've asked the EIC to send me a copy that we can reference. Haven't heard back from him yet.

From the Student Media handbook (I can provide a copy for reference):

The Mercury follows the Associated Press’ guide to profane word usage.

Inclusion of profanity and vulgarity is discouraged if it is used exclusively for humor or shock value and lacks any journalistic reasoning for its use.  Profane or vulgar language may be acceptable in quotations when used by official sources (university faculty, staff or students in positions of authority or elected office) if the language shows particular relevance in the context of the article or agate copy.

Profane or vulgar language should not be used in opinion pieces.
