Campus Spaces & Events
While Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ understands the importance in-person classes, meetings and events can play at the university, the health, safety and well-being of the entire Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ community remains a priority.
As circumstances change, this guidance is subject to modification. Additionally, university-sponsored conferences, meetings and events may be cancelled in the interest of campus health and at the discretion of the university; sponsoring parties will be notified in writing of cancellation.
All university-sponsored conferences, meetings and events are subject to the following:
Attendance at university-sponsored conferences, meetings and events, including outdoor events, as well as attendance for academic instruction, residency workshops, and orientation activities is limited to a maximum attendance of 50% of occupancy level.
- The provision of food and drink at university-sponsored conferences, meetings, and events is allowed in accordance with Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ Operating Policies. Steps should be taken to ensure that occupancy limits are adhered to and that appropriate physical distancing can be maintained when eating or drinking. Additionally, precautions should be taken in regard to the packaging of food and drink provided to ensure that there is minimal contact between individuals when serving, such as single serve or βboxβ packaging.
The host/planning department has the responsibilities to ensure appropriate capacity and physical distancing protocols are followed throughout a meeting or event.
In adherence to the requirements provided above, outside individuals or groups may be eligible to use Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ premises for functions and events as provided under Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ Operating Policy 61.07, Use of Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ Premises and Amplification Equipment, with approval from the Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ sponsoring departmentβs applicable dean, provost or vice president.
