Haverford's focus on student agency extends to stewardship of community life, where student-to-student leadership and mentorship opportunities in myriad areas such as service on hiring and governing committees to experience gleaned through running more than 140 clubs and organizations. The student-crafted and managed Honor Code is designed to encompass both academic and social spheres of life, influencing everything from the spirit of intellectual inquiry to personal interactions as it suggests a path guided by trust, concern, and respect. The past year has brought a rigorous, candid, and necessary assessment of the ways in which community life as it is experienced by many students does not align with longstanding and cherished ideals that find expression in the Code.
