Alcohol Policy
The possession, consumption, or sale of alcohol on campus or at University-sponsored activities is prohibited, unless specifically sanctioned by the University and allowed by state and local alcoholic beverage regulations. The use of alcoholic beverages in the following instances must be approved by the President or his or her designee: (1) on campus and at functions sponsored by, or primarily for, students; and (2) at off-campus student functions sponsored by recognized student organizations.
Non-alcoholic beverages and food items must be available at the same place as the alcoholic beverages and readily accessible as long as alcoholic beverages are available. Advertisements for social functions may not describe the availability of alcohol as a promotional tool nor promote consumption of alcohol by minors.
All persons must have proof of age at any activity involving the consumption of alcoholic beverages. If alcoholic beverages are served, the sponsoring organization must implement precautionary measures to ensure that alcoholic beverages are not accessible or served to persons under the legal drinking age or to persons who appear to be intoxicated.
Individuals involved in the illegal use or distribution of alcohol are subject to arrest and University disciplinary action.
