After dinner at Meg and Jay's on Monday, December 5th, the students broke into two groups and brainstormed how they want to treat, care for, and support each other while in Belize. Then the groups met as a whole and agreed on the following "group covenant."
1. Communication is key
2. Safety over discretion
3. Bucket list/Group rituals, ex. Family dinners
