All participants at Allen Institute sponsored events are expected to treat others in a courteous, collegial, and fair manner at all times.
Unacceptable Behavior:
The following types of behavior will not be tolerated during any Allen Institute sponsored event:
Individuals who engage in unacceptable behaviors may be asked to exit the event and may be banned from future Allen Institute sponsored events.
