It is agreed that the Works will be used in connection with University business, the activities of the University, or for promoting, publicizing, or explaining University activities or events.
Materials may appear in any of the wide variety of formats and media now available to the University and that may be available in the future, including but not limited to print, broadcast, videotape, CD-ROM, and electronic/online media.
I waive my right to inspect or approve any Works that may be created by the University using the Materials and waive any claim with respect to the eventual use to which Materials may be applied.
I understand and agree that the University is and shall be the exclusive owner of all right, title, and interest, including copyright, in the Works, and any commercial, informational, educational, advertising, or promotional materials containing the Materials. All electronic or non-electronic negatives, positives, and prints are owned by the University. I also understand that neither I nor my child will receive compensation in connection with the use of my child's name, likeness, image, or voice, nor in connection with the Materials.
I, on behalf of my child, furthermore release, indemnify and hold harmless University from and against any and all liability, actions, debts, claims and demands of every kind whatsoever, specifically including, but not limited to, any claim for negligence or negligent acts or omissions and any present or future claim, loss or liability for injury to person or property that my child may suffer, for which my child may be liable to any other person, or that may or does arise out of the use of the Materials.
