Scripps College is committed to fostering an environment that balances individual freedoms with respect for the rights and dignity of others, as affirmed in our Principles of Community. We believe that each member of our community plays a vital role in our collective learning and teaching experience.
The College recognizes the importance of freedom of belief, inquiry, and speech. We strive to maintain an atmosphere that encourages the expression of diverse opinions and beliefs, subject only to reasonable regulations of time, place, and manner. While acknowledging that such expressions may sometimes provoke or disturb, we remain dedicated to encouraging rather than limiting expression.
The Scripps community examines, influences, and challenges opinions that shape our individual perspectives and our global community even when they make us uncomfortable. When we wrestle with ideas, become curious, question, and seek understanding, we fuel learning and actively produce the world we desire.
President Amy Marcus-Newhall
