Code of Conduct

BALAS is an academic association committed to an open, rigorous exchange of ideas in a welcoming and friendly environment. All participants in formal BALAS activities and informal social gatherings are expected to treat one another in a professional manner with respect.

Bullying, unwelcome sexual attention, and discrimination are unacceptable behaviors. If you observe inappropriate behavior, please alert any member of the executive committee. Matters will be addressed by the executive committee confidentially. Consequences for inappropriate behavior may include removal from an activity and being barred from attending future conferences. Anyone who does not wish to abide by this policy should not participate in BALAS activities.

We are proud of our values and welcome those who share them.
