Alcohol policy guidelines now include visitors

Campus visitors must follow the same alcohol use guidelines as employees
and students, thanks to a new campus alcohol policy. The policy was announced
by President Wayne Clough in a letter to deans and department heads last
week.
“We felt it was important that all people on campus play by the same
rules when it comes to using alcohol. This policy is designed to complement
the existing employee and student alcohol policies,” said Vice President
of Student Affairs Lee Wilcox.
According to the new rules, alcohol cannot be present at any event or
activity without prior authorization by the president’s office or
his delegates. The delegates include Provost Jean-Lou Chameau, Senior
Vice President for Administration and Finance Bob Thompson, Executive
Director of the Alumni Association Joe Irwin, Director of the Athletic
Association Dave Braine and Wilcox.
Campus departments and units may also have additional rules on the use
of alcohol in their facilities.
In addition, tailgating is allowed for official Georgia Tech sporting
events, but is limited to three hours before and after the event. Kegs
and common containers for alcohol are not permitted at tailgate parties
on campus.
The policy also mandates that student attendance at events where alcohol
is served must be completely voluntary.
Copies of the new policy as well as the existing student and employee
alcohol and drug policies are available from Wilcox’s office or the
drug policy coordinator in the Office of Human Resources.
