INTEGRITY
Improve and expand my capacity to be a person of integrity. I pledge, that is, to:
- treat students, the faculty, and all visitors to the school with civility, honesty, and respect
- be sensitive to the emotional needs of students, the faculty, and visitors to the school
- offer and accept criticism only in reference to the problem or idea at hand, and never in reference to the individual
- respect the personal space and possessions of students, faculty and visitors
- respect a person’s right to their own views to the extent that such views are justified
- act as a positive agent (as opposed to a negative or neutral agent) to break apart cycles of disrespect
- refrain from using language which degrades individuals or humanity as a whole
- take responsibility for my mistakes and be prepared to make amends if I have caused others harm
- be steadfast in upholding principles of right action, particularly when it is difficult to do so
