Cosponsored Events

Many times schools, departments, or staff members are contacted by outside organizations about cosponsoring events on campus. Cosponsorship is a legitimate option provided:

  • A logical connection exists between the cosponsors 
  • The IPFW sponsor provides significant participation 
  • A tangible benefit accrues to the university 
  • The school or department agrees to cosponsor 

The IPFW sponsor's responsibilities include:

  • Ensure all publicity lists IPFW and the sponsoring unit in comparable size and status as the outside group 
  • Document cosponsorship terms in a letter of agreement 
  • Become the sole university contact for the off-campus group. All requests of the university (scheduling, facility setup, LRC, catering, and Police and Safety) must be made by the IPFW sponsor. 
  • If contracts are involved or money is to be expended or collected, plans must be cleared with the appropriate IPFW business manager or the Comptrollers Office.
