Student Organization Travel

WPO 5.10-3 Student Organization Travel (Op5.12-5)

When a student organization travels off campus, they must follow the appropriate travel procedures to ensure the safety of all involved.  An Organization Trip Form with pertinent travel and emergency contact information must be completed turned in to the Office of Student Life and Development prior to all travel events 10 miles or more outside of West Plains city limits. Every person traveling with the group must also complete a trip activity release form.  This form is also turned in to the Office of Student Life and Development.  The forms will help the organization and the University respond in case of emergency.  Of course, when student organizations travel, they always represent the University.  It is expected that all University policies be followed even when traveling.  More information on student organization travel is available in the Student Organization Handbook.
