Risk Management and Insurance

Activities as diverse as business travel, displaying of fine art, working with outside vendors and service providers, and hosting class reunions all present risks to the University. Our insurance policies, guidelines, and processes serve to minimize these risks and to promote the safety of our faculty, staff, students, and members of the University community. Here you’ll find information to help you plan activities and initiatives in a safe, low-risk manner.

Request for a University Certificate of Insurance: If an outside entity or organization has made a request for the University to provide a certificate of insurance, please contact Risk Management. We will need a copy of the contract/agreement to ensure the appropriate certificate is issued.

Have questions? Reach out to our office at any time. From pre-event consultation to contract review, we will work with you to define the resources that best fit your needs.
