Section 5.4: Co-Sponsorships

In limited instances, the facility use fee normally charged to outside organizations may be waived for those events or activities that are co-sponsored by a university school, department or recognized student organization. The sponsoring IPFW School or Department must assure that the following criteria and guidelines are followed:
  • There must be a logical connection between the IPFW sponsor and the outside organization.

  • The IPFW sponsor must have significant participation in the activity or event.

  • All event publicity must list IPFW and the sponsoring department in comparable size and status as the outside organization.

  • A tangible benefit must accrue to the University.

  • Co-sponsorship terms between the involved parties must be documented in a letter of agreement or contract.
    • The sponsoring department becomes the sole university contact for the group. All requests of the university (e.g., scheduling, facility set-up, LRC, Police and Safety, catering) must be made by the IPFW sponsor.

    If the above criteria is satisfied, please complete the co-sponsorship proposal form. If the event occrus in the Rhinehart Music Center or outside of your normal domain please contact the Special Events Manager at 481-5493.
