serving the workshop campus, dormitory accommodations, meals, program
materials, and access to certain campus athletic facilities (except swimming

College Horizons program are carefully supervised throughout the duration of
the workshop; safety and security procedures are discussed and enforced; and
attendance is taken for all activities including evening dorm check-in. College and Graduate Horizons underage (minors)
participants are not permitted to drive to or from the workshop campus, leave
the workshop campus, or take public transportation around the workshop
campus. College and Graduate Horizons
participants agree to adhere to the rules of the program and, as guests of the
hosting college or university, agree to adhere to all University rules and
regulations.
