Co-Sponsorship Policy


Co-sponsorship of student programs or events by individuals or groups not affiliated with the University, whether in the form of financial sponsorship, or support and assistance in the planning and promulgation of a University-sponsored event, may be permitted, subject to limitations, including but not limited to the following:

a. The "locus of control" for an event must remain at all times with the student organization and its advisor, in cooperation with the Office of Student Activities & Facilities. It is the dual responsibility of both the organization and the advisor to be advised about, and maintain control of all media, communications, and promotions of an event and ensure compliance with all policies governing student organizations and events.

b. A co-sponsorship relationship that contravenes law or University policy is prohibited. Advisors and organizations are given first responsibility for questioning the propriety of a co-sponsor's presence in, or actions regarding, an event.

The Office of Student Activities & Facilities is charged with the final determination of such co-sponsorship relationship and may cancel events where the relationship is in violation of policy.
