The University of Chicago has adopted The Policy on the Safety of Children in University Programs. The requirements of this policy apply to faculty, academic appointees, postdoctoral researches, staff, student employees, volunteers, and others who work with University programs that serve children. The purpose of the policy is to promote the protection of children, to fulfill our obligations as mandated by law, and to provide the best possible experience for any child visiting our campuses or involved in University-related programs.
