Sale of Alcoholic Liquors

(16) In September 1980, the Board of Trustees approved the sale of alcoholic liquors to participants in conventions and conferences pursuant to enabling legislation enacted by the 81st General Assembly. Also approved were principles that would be embodied in specific guidelines and mechanisms for control to be developed by each campus. In accord with this action, the campuses have obtained liquor licenses in the name of the Board of Trustees and have established appropriate guidelines and control mechanisms. T h e enabling legislation has since been amended to broaden its permissive coverage to include the licensing of facilities used not only for convention or conference participants, but also for participants in cultural, political, or educational activities held in such facilities. However, it is required that the faculty or staff of the University or members of an organization of students, alumni, faculty, or staff of the University be active participants in the conference or convention. T o accommodate this amended legislation, the chancellors have recommended that the principles adopted by the Board of Trustees in September 1980 be modified as follows: 1 a. T h e sale or serving of alcoholic liquors would be limited to convention and conference participants and participants in cultural or educational activities, provided that the faculty or staff of the University or University members of the sponsoring organization are active participants in the conference or convention. b. The facility directors would be responsible for providing liquor service in accordance with State law and University policies.
