Risk Management and Student Organizations

All student organizations should be concerned with risk management. No matter how big an event or how small an activity, risk will be present at some level. Learning to manage risk will reduce individual liability and ensure a fun enviroment for participants.

Risk Management is the process of considering the potential and perceived risk involved in activities. It includes monitoring organization activities and taking both corrective action and proactive steps to minimize accidental injury and/or loss.

This website will provide you with information to help identify risk and take proactive steps before difficult situations arrive.

Please remember….all recognized student organizations and organizational advisors are required by law to take risk management training. For more information on training sessions view the Required Risk Management Training link below or contact the Office of Student Activities at 254-968-9490.
