Policies and Guidelines

 

Amplified Sound

The purpose of the amplified sound policy is to regulate outdoor amplified sound so that it is unlikely to interfere with instruction or other University events or activities. Amplified sound may be approved for locations where such interference is not likely to occur.

The sponsoring organization or department is responsible for notifying three days in advance any faculty who are teaching classes that may be able to hear the sounds coming from the proposed activity. 

The volume of outdoor amplified sound for events held in locations such as the stadium must be controlled to sound levels and within time periods that are in compliance with this policy, city ordinances, and with consideration for neighboring communities.

The President has delegated policy oversight to the Vice President for Student Affairs who in turn has delegated the administration of the policy to the Director of Student Activities.
