STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY PLEDGE
We have a fantastic conference planned for you! In addition to hearing from a great line-up of speakers, you will also make new friends from across the country!
For this conference to be a success and a wonderful experience for all involved, we count on your good behavior and full cooperation with YAF staff and your fellow students.
Please read this pledge, sign it, and return it.
At this Young America’s Foundation (YAF) program, I understand that:
I am attending this conference to learn, make new friends, and have fun! The schedule was expressly created to benefit my education. Because generous YAF supporters have made it possible for me to attend this conference, I recognize I am required to be present at all sessions and events.
I understand it is my responsibility to get up each day in a timely manner and be where I am supposed to be on time. Causing delays is unacceptable.
I am excited about the opportunity to learn more about conservative ideas and principles. I am not here under any false pretense, and I will not disrupt or undermine the event in any way.
I will demonstrate appropriate conduct at all times, including refraining from illegal acts, sexual impropriety, or other indecorous behavior. I understand that if I I fail to abide by this Student Responsibility Pledge and YAF’s Student Code of Conduct, available at www.YAF.org and by written request, YAF may choose to send me home at my own expense and bar me from attending future programs.
