Hi Ashley – We have a policy stewarded by another office. The Student Organizations & Activities team is an initial reviewer of the risk management plan students propose before passing along to university risk management and vice president’s office who can sign contracts for providers related to an undergraduate event or activity where alcohol is present.

Northwestern is a community of learners situated within a network of historical and contemporary relationships with Native American tribes, communities, parents, students, and alumni. It is also in close proximity to an urban Native American community in Chicago and near several tribes in the Midwest. The Northwestern campus sits on the traditional homelands of the people of the Council of Three Fires, the Ojibwe, Potawatomi, and Odawa. It was also a site of trade, travel, gathering and healing for more than a dozen other Native tribes and is still home to over 100,000 tribal members in the state of Illinois.

It is within Northwestern’s responsibility as an academic institution to disseminate knowledge about Native peoples and the institution’s history with them. Consistent with the University’s commitment to diversity and inclusion, Northwestern works towards building relationships with Native American communities through academic pursuits, partnerships, historical recognitions, community service and enrollment efforts.

Subject: Alcohol at Student Organization Sponsored Events

Hello!

If your campus allows student organizations to sponsor events in the Union with alcohol, can you please share your policy?  We are starting to tip our toes into the thought of this and would love to learn how this is handled at other campuses.  I would also love to hear your successes and struggles with this.

Have a great weekend!
