Codes for a Community of Consideration
We rely on each other to make our programs a positive learning experience. The teachers and staff agree as well to the following to help create a community of consideration. We ask that you review the below in detail and also agree.

Be tactful, respectful and kind with one another. Listen and speak to one another as you would like to be listened and spoken to.

A successful course depends on all its members. Students must attend all classes and activities and be on time. Sleeping in is not an acceptable reason for missing class.

Good communication is essential to a strong, positive community. If you are unable to attend any required event or class; if you’ve missed a day or will miss one, let your instructors know. If you have any problems, conflicts or concerns, speak with either your teacher or Summer Programs staff.

Honor risk and hard work, not competition.

The Sarah Lawrence Community is far reaching. The hard work of many you may never meet or get to know makes this program possible. Please help respect their efforts by treating them with consideration.

Please sign below to acknowledge that you agree to Codes for a Community of Consideration.
