Rollins College
sponsors travels and special events for students as a means of providing a
comprehensive and diverse learning environment.
These types of activates always carry potential risks. Rollins takes risk
education and management seriously. Informing students of risk associated with
off-campus events such as class trips, conferences, service projects etc. (both academic and co-curricular in nature) whether
local, national or international is our responsibility as educators. The safety
and welfare of our community, including students who leave campus for
Rollins activities, are our top priorities.
Therefore, Rollins has adopted a new electronic Student Travel Waiver
form to replace the existing paper form.
One of the purposes of this form is to educate our
students to the potential risk associated with an activity and what is expected
of them during the trip. These forms
are to be provided to the students at least 15 days in advance of an off-campus
activity so that the students can read the information carefully and electronically
sign the waiver form. In addition, a
parent or guardian must sign the waiver form on behalf of any Rollins student
under the age of 18.
In the comment
section of the form, and before students sign, trip organizers must provide
specific details of the potential risk associated with the trip planned and
state their expectations of the students while they are on the trip.
Below are the instructions on how to use the system.
