6. 1. The University-contracted food service shall have the exclusive right to provide food service on the University campus except for:

      1. 1. 1. Thomas & Mack Center
         2. 2. Sam Boyd Stadium
         3. 3. College of Hotel Administration's Boyd Dining Hall (in Frank & Estella Beam Hall)
         4. 4. Richard Tam Alumni Center for alumni events.
         5. 5. Other University departments holding fundraising or other specified events that include donated food and beverages (signed waiver form required).
         6. All events requesting waivers from the University contracted food service waiver has been obtained, a copy of said shall be forwarded to the office that scheduled the event. All invoices submitted by the University contracted food service shall be paid within ten (10) days of the invoice date. In the event invoices are not paid within thirty (30) days of the invoice date, interest will be charged to the ordering organization.

   The sale or distribution of alcoholic beverages on campus requires (under Section 8.20.355 of the Clark County Code) a completed "Notice of Sale or Distribution of Alcoholic Liquor upon University Property" along with a letter identifying by names, addresses, and ages those who will distribute the alcohol. This information must be filed with the Vice President for Student Life Office no less than eight working days before the scheduled event. A full-time University employee must sign as the "responsible person." That person assumes responsibility for the conduct of the event and agrees to be present throughout the portion of the event where alcoholic beverages are served.

   For those events which the University-contracted food service provider will serve the alcohol, a memo outlining that arrangement must accompany the completed request form. For events at which underage persons will be in attendance, the sponsoring group will need to detail procedures to prevent service to minors as required by Clark County Code 8.20-350. University Police must be notified of the date and time of all events at which alcohol service is to be provided. University Police will provide security coverage but the sponsoring organization will be responsible for any costs associated with that coverage. Any member of the University community found to be in violation of the University alcohol policy shall be subject to disciplinary actions by the appropriate University office. Under certain circumstances, action may be taken by the University Police department and/or local law enforcement agencies.

   There will be no Department of Public Safety charges to the user when security needs can be met through the use of assigned duty personnel. If an event requires police in addition to assigned duty personnel, the costs will be met by the user and billed accordingly. The Athletic Department, Thomas & Mack Center, Performing Arts Center, Student Union, Campus Housing, and the McDermott Complex will coordinate all security/police needs through the Department of Public Safety. All other security requirements in conjunction with scheduled events will be coordinated through the office that scheduled the event. The security needs for the events are at the Department of Public Safety's discretion.

   2. ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES
   3. SECURITY FOR SPECIAL EVENTS
   4. BUILDING SECURITY

      The Mission of the University Department of Public Safety (DPS) is to ensure the safety and security of all individuals on the university campus and the protection of all university and personnel property. As a result, the departmental policy as it reflects on campus building security is strict and governed by procedure.

      1. University Building Security Policy

         The University is open for business from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday. Normal Classes are held for students from 7:00 am to 10:15 pm. Monday through Friday. During these hours, most buildings or sections of buildings will remain open and accessible for the public, staff, faculty, and student. Some hours may also be reserved for Saturday classes.

         All university buildings, classrooms, offices, etc are scheduled for use to avoid overlapping or conflicting use. All information pertaining to scheduling is coordinated and published by Facilities Management in the form of a Weekly Report.

         All other rooms and buildings not specifically listed as being open and available for use will be secured and locked. No access will be allowed.

         1. Business Hours:
         2. Scheduling:
         3. Closure:

      During non-business hours on weekends, evenings, and holidays, only UNLV Student Security personnel and University Police Services officers may open any building doors and/or secure them as directed by DPS communications after they have reviewed the Weekly Report for Room, Opening and Closing list from Facilities Management.

      Department of Public Safety personnel will not allow entrance, nor open and unlock any door for any individual who is not authorized by the Weekly Report for Room, Opening, and Closing list from Facilities Management. Any DPS employee that does this takes responsibility for that individual(s) actions while inside the building or room. Exception: Fire or Life or Death emergency will exempt the above statement. Student Life Facilities (Student Union, McDermott Complex, and Campus Housing) will maintain their own internal process for building access.

      The following are the only authorized means of gaining access to any building, ground, or office after hours:

      2. Weekends, Holiday & Evening Security Duties
      
      
      3. Building Security
      4. Building Access Authorization
         1. Events scheduled and listed on the Weekly Report for Room, Opening and Closing from Facilities Management.
         2. Possession of properly completed, signed and approved "UNLV Request for Building Use" form at the function.
         3. Possession of an authorized key for the building and room. REMEMBER: Possession of a key to an office assigned for use does not grant an individual permission to be in the building after hours. A key to the building must also be assigned.

      Any personal, rented, or leased property left in any building and/or room can not be retrieved without proper identification showing positive ownership of that property and permission to access the area in question to retrieve said property. Otherwise, the person will have to wait until the next scheduled business day or contact on their own the person having supervisory access to the area/property in question (Dean, Chair, etc.) so they may respond and handle the situation. Individuals may contact the Department of Public Safety at 895-3668 or the MSU Information Desk at 895-3221 for lost-and-found for the campus.

      Outside contractors will only be allowed access to a building or area if:

      Key authorization must be obtained using approved forms and must be signed by the correct departmental head. Department of Public Safety cannot authorize keys for any non-Public Safety personnel.

      5. Property, Lost, Abandoned, Forgotten
      6. Outside Contractors Gaining Access
         1. it has been previously scheduled and arranged for with the department by Facilities Management, -or-
         2. there is a Facilities Management employee accompanying the contractor to take responsibility.

      Student Security will open any door that is on the list of room openings that is received from Facilities Management. In addition, if an individual has an approved copy of a "UNLV Request for Building Use" and provides Public Safety with this form, the door will be opened. Please make certain that the form is completed and signed. Frequently Public Safety staff are called on to assist someone who has become locked out of their office or building. If the person has given permission for security personnel to enter their office or room and provided UNLV identification they are assisted as follows:

      7. Student Security Services Procedure and Policy
         1. Room Openings
         1. Upon making contact with the individual requesting assistance the location of the individual's keys is confirmed, with a visual check of staff identification, and dispatch is notified of the ID number and name.
         2. The room is entered while the individual in question waits outside of the area. The room will never be entered alone by DPS staff.
         3. The keys will be retrieved ONLY from the area or areas that were approved for search. If the keys cannot be located contact is made with the individual and they are advised of the situation. They will not be permitted to enter the office.
         4. Once keys are located, the office or room will be secured. The individual requesting assistance will be escorted out of the building. Once the building has been exited and the outer door secured, the keys are relinquished to the owner.
         5. If someone wishes to work after hours or on weekends and holidays, it is his or her responsibility to make arrangements in advance. Public Safety has no way to ensure that an individual is authorized to be in any building if they do not have keys that open that building. Any situation that arises outside of this policy should be referred to the Sergeant on duty. If a Sergeant is unavailable, refer the situation to the dispatcher on duty. At no time will any Student Security Officer take the initiative to let any individual into a building or room unless the above procedure is followed.

      Student Security will open any door that is on the list of room openings that is received from Facilities Management. If, for any reason Student Security is unavailable, the duty police officer assigned by communications, will act according to the specifications in this section.

      8. Room Opening Backup

   The University of Nevada, Las Vegas wants to provide a safe and secure environment for its citizens. The University realizes that there are individuals who criminally prey on those attending special events, become involved in affrays, and otherwise disturb events, causing injury or the defacement of property.

   5. GENERAL SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

      During all special events, the following standards will apply;

      1. Special Events
         1. If an event is held without alcohol being present, an average of one police officer for every 1,000 attendees will be used.
         2. If an event is held where alcohol is present, an average of one police officer for every 500 attendees will be used.
         3. Rock Concerts as defined by the Clark County Ordinance, and Outdoor Festivals, will be staffed with one police officer for every 500 attendees in accordance with County Ordinance.
         4. The University Department arranging and/or leasing/renting out any university location for an event will advise the party in question of the above standards and will, before any final settlements, contact the Director of Public Safety or his designee for a final approval on security and police arrangements.
         5. The University Director of Public Safety, or his designee, shall have the final decision making capability and will decide how many police officers will be present, if any, and how many security personnel will be present, if any, after being properly advised as to the content, purpose, location and reason for the event in question.
      2. Definitions
         1. Attendees - Any individual at a special event, whether a paid ticket holder, invited guest, or event staff which are allowed to partake of the event or activities.
         2. Rock Concert - As defined by Clark County Ordinance.
         3. Outdoor Festival - As defined by Clark County Ordinance.
         4. Security - Unarmed event staff used for the purpose of securing doorways, entrances, and other areas or for the general purposes of crowd control/ushering purposes.
         5. Police Officer - A fully certified Peace Officer as defined by the State of Nevada (NRS), under the direct supervision of the University's Director of Public Safety or Chief of Police.
         6. Special Event - Any event held on university property which is not a regularly scheduled class, classroom exercise, event, function or activity intended for university students as part of their educational experience; which is intended for entertainment purposes, fundraising, income purposes, sports, or intended for the general public.

      The above requirements are averages and will be considered as a basis for any special event being arranged. Certain events such as rock concerts and outdoor festivals fall under County Ordinance as well as under University Policy, and any relevant Ordinance's will also be observed and followed. All departmental representatives arranging for the lease, rental, or use of any University property for any event or special event will contact Public Safety to inquire about security and police requirements prior to any final arrangements with any party.

      3. Procedure

   Policies on insurance requirements for NSHE facilities are governed by Nevada Revised Statutes and the Chancellor's Office. The State of Nevada maintains self-insured liability program for NSHE sponsored events. Requesting that non-university users provide additional single limit coverage is to protect the University in the event someone connected with the event causes personal injury or property damage to someone while using the facility. These policies were formalized over a period of several years, with the current policies formalized in June, 1993.

   6. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
      1. Any NSHE sponsored activity/group/event is covered by the State of Nevada's self-insurance program. To be recognized as a NSHE sponsored event, any revenue generated by the event would have to be deposited into an appropriate NSHE Business Center account, and any expenditure incurred in support of the activity would be in accordance with NSHE regulations and procedures.
      2. Use of University facilities by outside users requires combined single limits of liability of at least $1,000,000 and a certificate of insurance naming the Board of Regents, University and Community College system of Nevada, on behalf of the institution, as additional insured. It should be noted that although student government is provided coverage under the State's self-insurance program, student organizations, even those recognized by the student government, are not.
      3. Only the President or his/her designee can reduce or waive this insurance requirement. Additionally, the University is willing to accept statements of self-insurance from other governmental agencies (refer to the State Government Organization Chart as shown in the State Administrative Manual to determine if the agency is an official governmental agency).
      4. In any event, the certificate of insurance, letter of self-insurance, or waiver should be on file prior to the scheduled event.

SECTION II - OTHER RELATED POLICIES

1. PARTISAN POLITICAL ACTIVITY

   Note: UNLV Student elections, which are governed by CSUN policy, are exempt from this policy.

   A policy of nonpartisanship and neutrality will govern the University at all times in its relationship with elected officials or persons campaigning for public office.

   • UNLV will not sponsor or support political candidates, ballot initiatives or questions.
   • UNLV campus mail and email will not be used to distribute political materials in any form. This applies to both members and nonmembers of the University community.
   • If the titles of faculty and staff used in political correspondence might reasonably be construed as implying support, endorsement or opposition of the University with regard to any non-university activity or issue, the identification shall be accompanied by an explicit statement that the individual is speaking for himself or herself and not as a representative of the University or any of its offices or units.

   Reserving Space for Political Events

   Campus Organizations:
   Campus political organizations have access to selected University facilities on the same basis as all other campus organizations — in keeping with the rights of all members of the campus community to express political views. All political organizations are to be assessed the usual costs for the use of the facilities.

   University users (students, faculty, or staff) who wish to present informational events open to the public, but not in support of particular candidate(s), ballot initiative(s) or question(s) - such as lectures or debates - must provide Certificates of Insurance for general liability coverage of at least $1 million combined single limit per occurrence. They may be eligible for reduced or waived use fees.

   Off-Campus Political Organizations:
   Candidates for public office and campaign organizations, regardless of their affiliation or non-affiliation with UNLV, may rent campus grounds and facilities for campaign events. They will be treated as non-University users and charged the full rental and related use fees applicable to the grounds or facilities they wish to use [see Facility Use Fees].

   Members of political organizations or campaigns who wish to reserve space on campus should first contact the Office of the Vice President for Diversity and Government Affairs at 702-895-5397.

   • Those who reserve space for political activities are required to include the following statement in all publicity: "This event (or publication) does not reflect an opinion or endorsement by the University of Nevada, Las Vegas."
   • Candidates and campaign organizations who rent UNLV grounds and facilities, regardless of their affiliation or non-affiliation with UNLV, must provide to UNLV, for each event, Certificates of Insurance which provide general liability coverage of at least $1 million combined single limit per occurrence.
   • Candidates and campaign organizations may film or shoot still photos on the UNLV campus subject to the Guideline for Commercial Filming, but may not express or imply an endorsement by UNLV.

   Posting of Campaign Materials on Campus
   Political campaign signs and handbills of candidates for public office, or for ballot initiatives or questions, are subject to the campus Posting Policy. Such materials may be distributed by hand outdoors in the designated expressive activity areas only.

   Political signs placed on the campus in violation of the Posting Policy will be removed by the University, and those responsible will be charged for the cost of removal by the UNLV Facilities Management Department. Removal costs are available to the public upon request.

2. STUDENT RECRUITMENT EVENTS

   It is the goal of the University to promote on-campus recruitment events. Programs that bring prospective students to the campus enhance recruitment efforts. Like all activities, special events have certain costs associated with them. Recruitment events may qualify for a waiver of the facility usage fee if they are endorsed by Director of Undergraduate Recruitment or the Dean of the Graduate College, as appropriate as official recruitment events. (Exceptions for this waiver shall be for the use of all of Thomas & Mack Center, Performing Arts Center, and Student Union.) However all fees for technical or specialist assistance will be passed on to the user group.

   The following guidelines are offered for determining a recruitment event:

   1. Events sponsored or co-sponsored by the Director of Undergraduate Recruitment or the Dean of the Graduate College as recruitment events.
   2. Events sponsored by on-campus academic units or departments that are coordinated through the Director of Undergraduate Recruitment or the Dean of the Graduate College and include a recruitment component in the program will be considered recruitment events.
   3. Athletic events are to be coordinated through the Athletic Department and generally will not qualify as recruitment events.

3. SPONSORED RESEARCH PROJECTS

   Activities funded from sponsored projects that are awarded to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas from federal, state and/or private agencies are to be treated the same as any other on-campus activities. Therefore, the facilities-use charges applied to grants and contracts activities must be consistent with the charges for other University-related activities. OMB Circular A-21 "Cost Principles for Education Institutions" allows the expenditure for a facilities use charge as long as it "conforms to generally accepted cost accounting practices consistently followed by the institution."

   The intent of this policy is to assure the availability of suitable facilities for UNLV's biennial Commencement ceremonies and receptions (in May and December).

4. COMMENCEMENT FACILITY RESERVATION POLICY

   1. During the period beginning two days before any commencement ceremony and ending at the beginning of the second day after that ceremony, Facility managers will require on-campus users who wish to reserve a room to obtain signed approval of the academic dean or vice-president responsible for the facility.
   2. Campus academic or administrative units that wish to hold commencement receptions on campus may reserve a facility prior to 180 days before the ceremony, with the appropriate approval, as stated above. Prior to 180 days before commencement ceremonies, facility managers will not allow non-UNLV organizations to reserve sites at a time and/or place that might conflict with commencement activities, unless approval by the dean or vice-president most closely related to that facility is obtained by the facility manager. Within 180 days of commencement ceremonies, campus users may reserve facilities for commencement-related activities, with approval, but will face competition for facilities from off-campus users.
   3. The University will reserve the Thomas and Mack Center for its commencement ceremonies and primary reception.

5. USE OF OUTDOOR AREAS

   1. The Alumni Amphitheater is designated as a limited public forum area where all persons may exercise, to the extent permitted by law and these policies, the activities of expression, speech and assembly. Such activities shall be consistent with the maintenance of University facilities and the free flow of persons and traffic and shall not interfere with other scheduled activities. Interference with entrances to buildings, classrooms, offices or study areas is strictly prohibited. This designated area shall be reserved through the Student Union Administrative Office.
   2. Use of University facilities for overnight camping is strictly prohibited. Camping includes staying overnight in a vehicle.
   3. Amplified sound may be used at outdoor events only with the prior written permission of the University. The privilege may be withdrawn if the amplified sound interferes with classes, scheduled events, normal business of the University or the general public. (For specific guidelines on amplified sound, please reference UNLV Outdoor Noise Policy).
   4. Any use of outdoor areas on campus must be approved by Facilities Management and Planning. The university will not be responsible for incidents involving sprinklers or other landscaping equipment without prior notification.

6. OUTDOOR NOISE POLICY

   UNLV's primary mission is to serve as an academic institution. As a result, no outdoor events should be held which disrupt the academic schedule of the university. Outdoor events which use amplified sound equipment are prohibited on the UNLV campus, except in the following locations listed below. All of the guidelines, procedures and policies must be adhered to.

   1. In the Pida Plaza and Alumni Amphitheater:
      1. Amplified sound may not interfere with UNLV's primary focus of teaching and learning. Individuals or organizations wishing to use amplified sound are obligated to prevent that sound from interfering with the teaching and learning process.
      2. Sound levels must be set prior to the start of the event so that amplified sound will not be heard inside buildings adjacent to the event location. Once set, sound must not be adjusted upward. Further reduction of the sound level or the termination of the amplified sound will be required if complaints about sound occur.
      3. On-going monitoring of the immediate environment in each facility surrounding the event will be conducted by the event sponsor to guarantee that fluctuation in type of sound and style does not lead to unanticipated interference based upon pre-set volume level.
      4. Program sponsors agree to have each group/performer sign an agreement indicating compliance with recommended standards.
      5. Failure to maintain acceptable sound volume levels may result in sponsor's immediate cancellation of the performance. If complaints are received indicating disruptions of teaching/learning functions or tasks in support of these functions, future requests to use amplified sound by the individual or organization will be denied.
   2. Performing Arts Center Plaza (the area between the Artemus W. Ham Concert Hall and the Judy Bayley Theatre), i.e. "Flashlight" area and the adjoining steps down to the Academic Mall.
      1. This area is not intended for use as an event space or sales area without the consent of the Director of the Performing Arts Center or designee. The Dean of Fine Arts will be consulted prior to use of these areas when a college event is to be presented in said areas.
      2. The Plaza, situated at the North end of the Academic Mall, is ideally suited for political rallies and University ceremonial activities. Every effort will be made to extend the Academic Mall and to accommodate events of this nature. Due to the high volume of theater, box office, and business office traffic, the area will not normally be available for outdoor concerts, festivals or other public events.
      3. Indoor scheduled events will have first priority.
      4. The possibility of outdoor noise conflicts with indoor events will be a primary concern.
      5. Interference with normal daily academic traffic will also be an important consideration.
      6. Unauthorized users of the Plaza may be asked to vacate the area or to leave the campus.
   3. Residence Hall Area: All outdoor events must be approved in advance by the Executive Council of the Residence Hall Association and the Office of Campus Housing. The primary areas used for outside events are the Warner Green, located between Buildings B, C and Warner Residential Life, and the field adjacent to the South Services Building.
   4. McDermott Physical Education Complex exterior areas shall be under the sole control of the MPE Facilities Supervisor.
   5. Thomas and Mack Center exterior shall be under the sole control of the TMC management.
   6. Sam Boyd Stadium shall be also be under the sole control of the TMC management.

7. BACKLIGHTED ADVERTISING

   Backlighted advertising is available for a fee on a space available basis from the Thomas & Mack Center.

8. MAJOR GIFTS TO THE UNIVERSITY

   Facilities built with financial support from a donor may be named in honor of that donor, with permission of the Office of the President. For more information, contact the UNLV Foundation.

9. SOLICITATION OF SIGNATURES

   Solicitation of signatures for petitions or other statements of support for public issues is permitted free of charge in the area designated for signature gathering and leafletting activities. Designated areas include the Academic Mall from the sidewalk immediately north of the Alumni Amphitheater to the foot of the steps at the Performing Arts Center plaza; the East-West Mall from the east sidewalk of the Academic Mall to the eastern edge of the McDermott Physical Education Building plaza; the Alumni Walk from the Lied Library to the south end of the walk where it empties into the Thomas and Mack Center parking lot. Not included are the Dickinson Plaza at the Lied Library and the interior courtyard (above the steps connecting the courtyard to the Alumni Walk) of the Classroom Building Complex.

10. VOTER REGISTRATION BOOTHS

    Voter registration booths may be set up free of charge at times and places approved by the Public Affairs Office. A copy of the written approval must be available at the times and the locations the booth is set up.

11. ATTENDANCE AT MEETINGS AND EVENTS IN UNIVERSITY FACILITIES

    Attendance at meetings and events may be limited to members of the University community or to members and invited guests of the sponsoring organizations. When meetings or events are open to the public, attendance by all persons must be permitted to the extent allowed by the size of the facilities. Disruptive individuals or uninvited attendees will be requested to leave or, when appropriate, ejected.

12. FUNDRAISER ACTIVITY POLICY

    Fund-raisers are defined as events that charge admission for the sole purpose of generating income for the sponsoring organization. University departments may schedule appropriate facilities with the appropriate office for fund-raising events. However, full operating costs will be assessed the department. All expenses incurred by University units in conjunction with fundraising events must be covered by the revenues received.

    1. If a University department co-sponsors a fundraising event, the following provisions shall apply:
       1. Full operating costs will be assessed by the Facility Manager.
       2. 10-15% of gross revenues will be charged with 50% distributed to the co-sponsoring department and 50% to the office that schedules the event.
    2. If a non-university organization rents facilities on campus for any fundraising events, the following provisions shall apply:
       1. Full operating costs will be assessed by the Facility Manager.
       2. 15% of gross revenues will be charged.
    3. Non-university non-profit organizations may distribute information about their organization, including fund-raising information, and may solicit pledges in non-rented areas designated for signature gathering and leafletting activities, but may not solicit on-the-spot donations in the form of cash, checks, credit card numbers, or any non-monetary items in any non-rented interior or exterior area of the campus. Solicitations of any kind are forbidden in non-rented areas outside the designated area.

Therefore, only those film or video projects that directly relate to UNLV, its faculty, staff, and students, and one or more of its programs may film or shoot video on the UNLV campus.
