Although students may remain in the IC after hours, it is each student’s responsibility to follow all policies and procedures during weekend and after hours as he or she would during business and evening hours.
Students may meet for executive board meetings or general membership meetings during weekend and after hours. However, any large-scale event scheduled during weekend and afterhours must be approved by an IC staff member. The Living Room space can be reserved; however, students not involved in your event/program cannot be asked to leave. The outer living room space is to remain accessible to all students. Only the conference room can be a private reserved space.
It is expected that students will be responsible when using IC facilities. Reservation privileges for meetings and events are contingent upon the group’s ability to thoroughly clean the room used and throw out trash after the end of a meeting or event. Furniture should be returned to its proper place. Please see the full list of cleaning guidelines below.
Advertised movie or film viewings require the purchase of copyright licenses first. Proof of copyright-license acquisition must be presented to an IC staff member before publicity for the viewing is disseminated.
Amplified sound is described as voice, music or any sound increased by electronic devices.
Events with amplified sound have the potential to interfere with University activities, including business meetings and academic classes. It will be at the discretion of the IC staff to determine appropriate levels of amplified sound. The IC has the right to require amplification systems to be turned down or off entirely if it is determined the sound level presents a disruption to services, students or other events.
Any and all music that is played within the confines of the IC, any space inside or outside, must be clean edited music without profane or lewd lyrics. Profane or lewd lyrics include but are not limited to ‘dirty music’, explicit versions of songs, strong profanity, music with hatred aimed at any protected class or instances of violence
Alcohol and other drugs are not allowed in the IC at any time for any reason. Any student using alcohol or other drugs in the IC is subject to any and all University sanctions. Student groups may not host events that involve alcohol at the IC. For more information, please see the University Policy on Drugs and Alcohol.
