±«Óãtv and the Office of University Communications are committed to the realities of the current ±«Óãtv student lifestyle - visualizing the mentorship and faculty/student interactions, the learning moments, the teaching moments, the camaraderie, the special bonds that develop amongst its community members. We celebrate our achievements through emphasizing the ±«Óãtv community as the source of institutional inspiration and innovation.
In order to respect and protect the privacy and interests of ±«Óãtv's students on campus and at institutional activities, ±«Óãtv has implemented a photography/video release policy that governs the nature of photographs and multimedia, generated by the University, for intended use in any and/or all University publications including, but not limited to, the ±«Óãtv website (colgate.edu), newsletters, programs, brochures, institutional calendars, social media, or mass media outlets. This policy grants ±«Óãtv permission to use the likeness of ±«Óãtv students captured in photograph(s)/video for any and all of its publications and in any and all other media, whether now known or hereafter existing, controlled by ±«Óãtv, in perpetuity. Additionally, it asserts that no monetary or other claim against ±«Óãtv for the use of the photograph(s)/video in the aforementioned outlets shall be made by ±«Óãtv students.
Each individual entering the ±«Óãtv community as a student is required to review this policy. Should questions arise regarding ±«Óãtv's photography and video release policy due to religious and/or safety concerns, please contact the Office of University Communications at 315-228-7407.
