Co-Sponsoring an Event with a Non-Affiliated Group

Dartmouth student organizations shall not use their status as a recognized group to access space, resources, or services, at the request of or on behalf of an outside, non-Dartmouth entity.

Student organizations hosting events with a non-Dartmouth organization must follow these guidelines:

• The student organization must be the primary source of funding for the event.  No funding will be accepted from an outside organization that is more than 50% of the cost of the event.
• All finances must be run through the student organization Dartmouth account.  The student group organization accepts responsibility for event finances, including but not limited to those of the non-Dartmouth co-sponsoring organization should it fail to meet its commitment.
• The student organization must be involved in all areas of event planning, event promotion and event execution.
• The student organization will be the primary decision maker at events.
• The student organization is encouraged to collaborate with the Student Involvement Office, as needed, in order to develop contracts or others matters pertaining to the event.
• The student organization remains accountable to Dartmouth for the actions of the non-Dartmouth organization with which it is hosting the event.
