Angry Negligence

Dear All (Hi Steve!)
Can anyone tell me if it is standard practice to have student pilots sign a disclaimer with a flying school, which states that the student concerned will not hold the flying school or any of its employees responsible, if an injury is sustained, whether or not that injury is caused by the negligent actions of the school or its employees? I thought it sounded a bit harsh i.e. If someone at the school negligently causes me to suffer a permanent or fatal injury, my signing of that disclaimer means that I will have no recourse against them, especially if I'm dead!! Thoughts please.
