Alcohol Policy

Alcohol must be served by qualified catering employees. Beverage service consists of wine, beer & champagne only. Food and non-alcoholic beverages must be served in adequate quantities when alcoholic beverages are served. Faculty & staff should see the Director of Special Events for any questions regarding this policy.

Student groups must have an Alcohol Use Approval Form (PDF) completed and approved at least 3 days prior to the event. This form is available in Business Services and needs to be signed by the Assistant Dean for Administrative Services, David Kelley, before it is faxed to the Provost office for approval.

Honoraria & Independent Contractor Payment

Any events that will require contractor payment should be arranged through our office in advance. Most companies will allow us to pay them off invoice. In some situations, a Federal Form W-9 will need to be obtained before payment can be sent. DO NOT PAY A CONTRACTOR, INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR or an HONORARIA out of your pocket. The college will not be able to reimburse you.
