Philosophy on Alcohol at Washington University in St. Louis

The Washington University in St. Louis' Drug and Alcohol Policy affords student groups the privilege of serving alcohol at certain events. Please be familiar with this and the checklist provided. Students are expected to know and abide by all applicable state and federal laws and university policies and procedures. Students are responsible for their own behavior; however, if a student group provides alcohol as part of their event they share in the responsibility to provide a safe environment for all attendees.

The sponsoring group will be accountable for any and all violations. Student groups need to be aware that knowingly or recklessly violating a published University policy, rule, or regulation; or participating in conduct which one should reasonably know to be a violation of a published University policy, rule, or regulation, is a violation of the University Judicial Code. For more information please see the University Judicial Code (Offense No. 18). Sanctions for violating this policy may include, but are not limited to, loss of funding, loss of space reservation privileges, referral to the judicial administrator and campus police or off campus criminal prosecution. The University places its highest priority on enforcing alcohol violations that are repeated, disruptive, dangerous and/or flagrant.

Staff members in the offices of Student Activities (935-5994), Residential Life (935-5050) and Greek Life (935-5923) are willing and able to assist during the planning process.

For additional questions, see Julie Thornton in the Office of Student Activities.

This policy may be modified or amended without prior notice.
