Summer Search Code of Conduct
Summer Search strives for a sense of community in which the individual growth of all students is paired with the cultivation of mutual respect, tolerance, and understanding. Summer Search values and encourages individuality while also ensuring that our socially responsible community allows the individual student to flourish without threatening the privileges, freedom, or safety of him/herself, other individuals or groups, or the Summer Search program. Summer Search is committed to honest, open, and, equitable engagement with racial, religious, gender, ethnic, sexual orientation and other differences.
The national and local Summer Search staff reserve the right to dismiss a student from the program at our discretion, particularly if staff determine that a student has behaved in a manner that violates this Code of
Conduct, or has otherwise aligned themselves with a group or belief that endangers him or herself, others in the program, or the program’s operations.
The principles stated above are values that hold for the entire Summer Search community.
We Expect You To Be Engaged Throughout Your Participation In Summer Search
Your continued participation in Summer Search, at all times and in good faith, is vital to your experience and the success of Summer Search. Chronic disengagement from the Summer Search program by you, including statements indicating that you wish to withdraw from the program; refusing to make contact with Summer Search staff; or violating the Student Contract and related program expectations will not be tolerated.
