Please keep in mind the GHNO student social life and cultural expectations.
Although the Academy does sponsor social events, these events should not be viewed as the promotion of romantic relationships between our young men and young women. The Academy believes that young men and women should be friends. We encourage their socializing together and the development of healthy relationships among them. Romantic relationships, on the other hand, can take up an enormous amount of the consciousness of young people. This is why the Academy prohibits activity like holding hands, kissing, and other overt forms of romantic behavior among students while on campus and at all Academy related events. (GHNO Handbook pg. 89)
