Children on Campus


Minor children who are supervised by a custodial parent or guardian, and those who are participating in approved educational events with appropriate adult supervision, are welcome on the Young Harris College campus. Due to considerations of safety, confidentiality, liability, and the potential for disruption, the College has set the following limits on children visiting campus:

 

  • A child visiting campus may not be left unaccompanied by the supervising adult for any length of time.
  • Children exhibiting symptoms of potentially contagious illnesses may not be brought to campus.
  • Children may be brought into places of work, including offices, classrooms, laboratories, athletics facilities, and other spaces where employees carry out assigned duties, only on a limited basis. Children may not be brought into such spaces repeatedly (e.g., as an alternative to childcare).

 

Children are welcome at all public events on campus unless otherwise indicated, provided they are appropriately supervised. Exceptions to this policy may be granted only with the express consent of the President or the Provost.
