Risk Management approve University related events to ensure that the events have the proper permits and insurance needed. Typically, events are classified into Student Organizations, department, or outside entities on campus.
Students and SOs need to email Risk Management when planning events with the following information:
All SOs need to work with the Campus Activities Center and register the event through Cowbell at least 10 business days prior to the event.
Please refer to the Student Events and Organizations Resources webpage for additional resources and event planning guides.
If you are looking to plan an event at a University of Wyoming facility, please email Risk Management with the following information:
University facilities can be scheduled through Central Scheduling, the Union, and Residence Life. Scheduled events will need to have caterers approved prior to the event in case vendor insurance is needed.
Liability Insurance is required for all events hosted by outside entities and may be required for events hosted by UW departments. The insurance can be purchased through the insurance vendor of your choice. The University of Wyoming must be named as additional insured on all special event policies, and the limits must be no less than $1,000,000 per occurrence.
Please contact Risk Management for more information.
The University of Wyoming is a member of the University Risk and Insurance Management Association and the required insurance may be purchased through their TULIP program through Gallagher EventPro.
