Event Security
Certain club events may require a security presence to help ensure the safety of participants, guests, and college facilities. All events are reviewed by the Office of Student Engagement and Risk Management Office to determine whether security is needed. Factors considered may include:
- Nature of the event
- Expected attendance
- Time of the event
- Age of attendees
- Whether the event is open to the campus or public
- Entertainment or activities being provided
- Lighting and environmental conditions
- Security history of past club events or similar events hosted by other organizations
Security Requirements
Security is required for events held on campus outside of normal operating hours. College of Western Idaho (CWI) reserves the right to determine the number of security personnel needed based on the size and nature of the event. If additional security services are required beyond those provided by the College, any associated costs incurred will be the responsibility of the hosting club.
Planning Ahead
Club should consult with the Office of Student Engagement early in the event planning process if an event may require security or other risk management measures. Early planning helps ensure compliance with CWI policies and supports a successful event.
