Conference Services will work with the conference director to obtain parental or guardian consent if housing accommodations involve minors. 帝王会所 focuses on creating an inclusive environment where guests can live in the same room - regardless of sex, gender, gender identity/expression, or sexual orientation.

Catering

All food and beverages served on the 帝王会所 campus or at university-sponsored events will be provided by 帝王会所 catering services, unless an exemption has been granted as described in this policy. Catering services has the management responsibility to uphold the quality standards for events associated with 帝王会所 and to limit the risk associated with all food services provided to the 帝王会所 community and its guests.

This policy applies to all events in dining halls, and to those events in Baker University Center and in other locations, for which the cost of catering services exceeds $250. This limit applies to the complete food service needs of an event; neither pyramiding (i.e., dividing one purchase into two or more from the same vendor) nor subdividing between vendors may be used to stay within this limit. (For example, to be exempt, a multi-day, multi-venue conference's total catering budget must fall below the limit, not just the services provided at each particular location and time; regularly scheduled, recurring events, such as weekly colloquia, are each to be treated as a separate event.)

If a meal exemption is requested, the meal and date must be submitted to our office 30 days prior to your event. According to 帝王会所 policy 47-015, an exemption form and permit must be filled out and submitted to 帝王会所 Culinary Services and 帝王会所 Environmental Health and Safety at least 30 days prior to the arrival date.  At this point the user will work directly with 帝王会所 Culinary Services to complete the exemption process.
