General Guidelines: ACROSS THE BOARD RECOMMENDATIONS:
- Most events food costs were capped at $6/student, guest costs were not covered. Exceptions of >$6/student were made for large events targeting the entire campus
- Did not fund items not essential to the success of an events:
- Decorations
- Honorariums/gifts
- Printing costs
- Serving supplies were not covered as they are cheap and often a supply that most groups can access from previous events
- Any event held by an organization that holds an event with a limited number of slots (Childhood Obesity, JLSA, KY, IPMC, Med Breakaway, FMIG) must open enrollment to all schools equally. We recommend that you announce an enrollment date one week prior to the date of enrollment through USGA News so that students from all schools are informed and prepared.
IMPORTANT REMINDERS: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN PENALTIES OR FULL LOSS OF APPROVED FUNDS: THIS IS JUST A SUMMARY. ALL ORFs ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLYING WITH ALL INFORMATION IN STANDING ORDER 1
- USGA funds may not be used for the purchase of alcohol.
- Publicizing rules
A. The USGA must be identified as a sponsor on any and all means of publicizing the co-sponsored event.
B. The ORF must advertise the event throughout the campus at least two weeks prior to the event (The ORF must utilize the USGANews for advertising their event). Throughout the campus for the purposes of this section means that regardless of advertising format, the advertisement MUST be readable in each school.
- Post event paperwork rules
A. All organizations must submit the following post event paperwork: Receipt Itemization Form, Event Summary Form, receipts, and attendance sheet (this sheet must indicate the school that each student attends) within two weeks following the event.
B. Penalties for failure to comply are outlined below in the USGA Funding Packet, Standing order 1
