I would say I most refer to the attendance policy as there are different requirement per program. I would say a close second would be the Code of Conduct.
It's sometimes disappointing to see students violating basic policies but helpful to have them outlined in writing when you are trying to enforce them.
Diana - good examples of items of interest to students which may be frequently referenced.
DeVaria - I am the same way - my catalog is marked up with tabs and highlights to help me find frequently referenced topics. Great point on checking addendums as most schools have updates as "supplements" between full catalog publications.

Attendance Policy
It is often that when advising a student, I pull the catalog to show them the attendance policy. I find it much easier to navigate my catalog by adding tabs LOL. I also have to check for addendums to our catalog online.

The topics I most frequent from my school catalog include: student Information/Services, Academic Information, and Academic Standards
Unfortunate, I address classroom conduct, dress code, makeup assignments, and attendance violations. Whenever I need to meet with a student regarding any of these violations, I have them read the highlighted information out of my college catalog.
Ione - you make a good point that having the catalog to reference is a good tool to help reinforce policies.
Great point, Richard! The catalog serves as a great reference to employees, as well as students.
Linda - great to hear you emphasize the importance of the catalog. It is a critical part of the agreement between schools and their students.
I mostly reference our Mission Statement because it summarizes what we stand for.
