LIABILITY RELEASE, STUDENT OR PARTICIPANT WAIVER

ILLINOIS COLLEGE OFF-CAMPUS PROGRAMS

Program Name ______INTERNSHIP PROGRAM______

I,______, am applying for participation in the above-listed program (“program”) offered by Illinois College (“College”). I am not required to participate in this program, although I may receive academic credit through participation in it. In consideration for being permitted to participate in the program, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, I agree and represent as follows:

1. I understand that, although the College will attempt to maintain the program as described in its publications and brochures, it reserves the right to change the program, including the itinerary, travel arrangements, or accommodations, at any time and for any reason, with or without notice, and that neither the College nor its trustees, officers, employees and agents, shall be responsible or liable for any expenses or losses that I may sustain because of these changes.

2. I further understand that the College reserves the right to establish rules for the operation of the program, and I will comply with those rules. The College, in its sole discretion, may terminate my participation in the program if I violate the rules or behave in a manner which is disruptive or which could impede or obstruct the progress of the program in any way, or affect adversely the reputation of the program or the College. If I am a student at the College, I understand that, if my participation in the program is terminated, I will receive no academic credit nor receive a refund of any program fees.

3. I understand that although the College has made every reasonable effort to assure my safety while participating in the program, I hereby acknowledge my awareness that my participation in the program may expose me to risk of property damage and bodily or personal injury, including death. I understand that the risks I may encounter include airplane crashes, motor vehicle accidents, and other travel-related accidents; cuts, bruises, broken bones, sickness, and other injuries and health-related occurrences; criminal acts; as well as other risks that may not be foreseeable. I have investigated the risks, and I hereby assume any and all such risks, and I release and promise not to sue the College or its trustees, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns.

4. For the sole consideration of the College arranging for my participation in the program, I, individually, and on behalf of my heirs, successors, assigns and personal representatives, hereby release and forever discharge the College and its governing board, their members individually, and their officers, agents and employees (in their official and individual capacities) from any and all claims, demands, rights and causes of action of whatever kind, arising from or by reason of any personal injury, property damage, or the consequences thereof, resulting from or in any way connected with my participation in the program and/or any travel incident thereto, including any acts of negligence on the part of the College, its trustees, officers, employees or agents.

5. I have or will secure comprehensive health and accident insurance to provide adequate coverage for any injuries or illnesses that I may sustain or experience while participating in the program. By my signature below, I certify that I have confirmed that my health care coverage will adequately cover me while I participate in the program, including any travel outside the United States, and I hereby release the College, and its employees and agents, from any responsibility or liability for expenses incurred by me for injuries or illnesses (including death) that I may incur because of those injuries or illnesses, including medical bills, charges, and similar expenses.

6. I authorize any representative of the College to secure dental and medical treatment for me if I am injured or become ill while participating in the program, including without limitation anesthetic and surgical treatment, and further authorize any representative of the College to sign authorization forms necessary to obtain the treatment. Neither the College nor its employees and agents shall be responsible or liable for any expenses or damages I may incur as a result of the College acting pursuant to this grant of authority.

7. I, individually, and on behalf of my heirs, successors, assigns, and personal representatives, agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the College, and its trustees, officers, employees, agents, successors, and assign (in their official and individual capacities), from any and all liability, loss, damage, claim, suit, and cost which arises out of, occurs during, or is in any way connected with my participation in the program or any travel incident thereto, including claims and suits arising out of any of my alleged acts or omissions, and any claim or suit made on my behalf by my legal representatives, heirs, successors, and assigns.

8. I agree that, should any provision or aspect of this agreement be found to be unenforceable, all remaining provisions of the agreement will remain in full force and effect.

9. I represent that my agreement to the provisions herein is wholly voluntary, and further understand that, prior to signing this agreement, I have the right to consult with the advisor, counselor, or attorney of my choice.

10. I agree that, should there be any dispute concerning my participation in the program that would require the adjudication of the court of law, such adjudication will occur in the courts of, and be determined by the laws of, the state of Illinois.

11. This agreement represents my complete understanding with the College concerning the College’s responsibility and liability for my participation in the program, supersedes any previous or contemporaneous understandings I may have had with the College on this subject, whether written or oral, and cannot be changed or amended in any way without my written concurrence.

12. I understand that my involvement with an internship will be shared to acknowledge internship experiences students complete to current and prospective students, faculty, and staff. This can include, but not be limited to, public display boards, news articles, and campus-wide dissemination.

13. I represent that I am at least eighteen years of age or, if not, that I have secured below the signature of my parent or guardian as well as my own.
