For insurance purposes, departmental on-campus events are defined as events directly supervised on-site by a University employee acting within the course and scope of employment. These activities are insured through the University’s General Liability Self-Insurance program.
If the departmental event includes physical activity (examples: dances, sports, working with power tools), participants must sign a waiver prior to participation. See the Waivers and Releases page for information about the type(s) of waivers that may be required.
