• Use your real first and last name during signup, which builds trust with fellow users and fosters better communication.  Our Terms of Service clearly states this.
• We encourage members to be helpful and have conversations that matter to them in a civil, constructive and respectful manner.
• The posts and conversations should be related to your school and education, do not discuss topics that are unrelated.  This platform encourages asking each other questions and learning from each other and provides a way to collaborate to better education.
• Do not attack, bully, harass, berate, threaten or swear at another member or members or any individual in a group or private message.
• Of course, you are entitled to think what you like and you might disagree at times with others, but be respectful and constructive.  This is not always easy, but just try to move on.
