I distinctly recall having ASS meetings where we talked about caves that individuals COULD go to if they had the correct permission. And then "after" the meeting, someone would let it slip that they had information where that was, and invite all their friends... Who of course happened to be at the meeting. I think we were vaguely aware of some sort of red tape we might encounter if we officially invited people representing ourselves as the organization and not as an individual. You can't assume people will take responsibility for their own actions- adult or not.
Waivers were always signed, just in case. I only remember meeting the faculty advisor once, however, who evidently was the original advisor in 1977. He never came to a meeting, he'd just sign the club approval and sponsorship papers once a year- a practice I'm pretty sure that has been grandfathered in. -B On Mon, Jan 25, 2010 at 8:20 AM, Gill Edigar <gi...@att.net> wrote: > On Mon, Jan 25, 2010 at 12:30 AM, Ryan Monjaras <muviduder...@hotmail.com> > wrote: >> >> thats only if its a student organization like the geology club, but if an >> individual student wants to go to CBSP then that persons regular insurance >> would cover it if that person got injured > > How would a student organization like the geology club be different from a > student organization like the caving club?
