Request for Permission to have Alcohol at a College-sponsored Event
Per College policy, possession of alcohol is prohibited at all College-sponsored functions without proper and prior
approval from the Office of the President. Event organizers who would like to provide and/or serve alcohol must seek
permission from the Office of the President by completing and attaching this form to the 25Live Request for Space. If the
request is approved, it will be so indicated on the 25Live event page. If the request is denied, the department(s) will be so
notified by the Office of the President.
If approval is granted, the department(s) hosting the event will be held responsible for hiring trained
professionals (either through Dining Services or an external vendor) to oversee the stock and service of alcoholic
beverages. It is essential that professional servers are retained to ensure the safety of all guests at the event as well as to
prevent inappropriate distribution of and/or access to the alcohol. If there are adverse issues and/or disturbances resulting
from the presence and/or consumption of alcohol at the event, the hosting department(s) may not be approved for future
registered events, regardless of whether or not alcohol is present.
Special permission may be obtained to provide and serve alcohol that is not provided and staffed by professional servers
at the discretion of the Office of the President.
