Social Event Management Procedures Review Committee
2005-2006 SEMP REVIEW COMMITTEE
Introduction
The Dean of the College, Jim Larimore created a new committee on social
event management to update the current Social Event Management Procedures
(SEMP). The Dean has asked the Committee to make recommendations to him
that will increase the health and safety of the campus community and will help
make the process more efficient. In, addition, Dean Larimore wants to ensure
that SEMP is compliant with recent changes in New Hampshire state laws.
The Committee will make recommendations to Dean Larimore the end of winter
term for possible implementation in the 2006-2007 academic year.
The Committee recognizes the far-reaching impact that potential changes to
the SEMP procedures may have on the student body. Hence, the Committee
encourages organizations, departments and individuals to submit their
recommendations. Please remember that the Committee will be focusing on
increasing the health and safety of the campus community and making the process
more efficient.

The Committee will only be considering changes to the SEMP procedures (http://www.dartmouth.edu/~sao/semp/)
-- not changes to the Alcohol Policy (
http://www.dartmouth.edu/~deancoll/documents/handbook/rules-regs/alc-drugs.html).
The SEMP procedures fit within the framework of the Alcohol Policy as Section
IX of that document, and which is further expanded as its own
document.
Please submit all recommendations electronically via blitz as an enclosed
Microsoft Word document to Kim
Hanchett. All submissions will be accepted and considered, as long as
they are prepared in the following format and received no later than
February 13, 2006 at NOON::

organization’s name (or individual), for an individual include organizational
or departmental position and BlitzMail address.

Microsoft Word that you would like to make changes to. Use the

word(s) or sections you would like to change.
- Add any new word(s) or sections in bold, whether to replace
"strikethrough" areas or to simply add on to the current

below the respective recommendation. The explanation should include why
the recommendation will increase the health and safety of the campus community
