Public displays of affection (PDA)

In a school where there are boys and girls of teenage years, we understand that from time to time romance may blossom between students. However, out of consideration for the wide range of cultures and ages within the ISPH population, we ask students to refrain from romantic displays of affection such as hugging, kissing, hand-holding and other physical actions that may be inappropriate in our setting. Our aim is not stifle romance, but rather to maintain conduct that is within the bounds of good taste and regard for the conscience of those around us.
