COSMO-25

Mellon College of Science has adopted this Code of Conduct for all MCS Events; however, specific events may have additional conduct codes.

We value your attendance and want to make your experience positive and productive through an open exchange of ideas in a professional setting.

Please register. In order to attend a conference, you must have registered through the event’s website. Please do not share or forward registration information to other people.

Be lively! Be present and participate actively.

Be mindful. To support a participatory learning and sharing environment for everyone, be aware of how much time you consume in discussions and Q&A sessions.

Be generous with your knowledge. Take time to explain and do not belittle others for what they do or do not know.

• Harmful or prejudicial verbal or written comments or visual images.
• Harassment, intimidation, or discrimination in any form.
• Disruption of presentations during sessions.
• Recording of sessions without permission.
• Distribution of promotion materials, special offers, or any for-profit product announcements.
