Known laws of the White Tower at the current time:

[edit] Accepted
- Accepted are not allowed to bond Warders under any circumstances.
- Accepted may not leave Tar Valon except on official business.
- Accepted may not be seen to be hurrying unless neccessary
- Accepted are responsible for arranging their own classes with Aes Sedai
- Accepted are responsible for deciding in which direction to take their studies
- Accepted are never to speak of what they experienced on their test for accepted
[edit] Aes Sedai
- All Aes Sedai are bound by the Three Oaths.
- Aes Sedai believe in a system of customs and traditions, many of which are as strong as law.
- example: Aes Sedai are expected to keep what they experienced during their test for Accepted and for the shawl to themselves. New Aes Sedai are told that the secrets of what happened to them during these tests are "to be shared in silence, and only then with the woman who has shared it with you."
