1 Risk Management Guide for Student Organizations Place Additional Presenter Title Here or Delete Text Box Place Presenter Title Here

2 Purpose of Training Provide an overview of risk management. Familiarize leaders of student organizations with risk assessment and management concepts and tools as required by Education Code 51.9361 2

3 What Will I Learn From The Training Ability to define risk management Use the risk matrix to identify and manage risk Identify risk in activities planned by an organization Develop methods to manage risk in activities planned by organization 3

4 Risk Management Concepts and Tools 4

5 What is Risk Management? Risk Management is the process of considering the potential and perceived risk involved in student activities. It includes monitoring organization activities and taking both corrective action and proactive steps to minimize accidental injury and/or loss. 5

6 High Risk Activities Alcohol and Illegal Drugs Hazing Sexual Abuse and Harassment Fire and Other Safety Issues Travel Behavior at Parties and Social Events Others? 6

7 Risk Types Physical Reputation Emotional Financial Facilities (This is used with permission from Student Risk Management at Arizona State University) 7

8 Risk Management Concepts Identify risky behavior and activities Assess the probability of adverse outcomes Identify and implement controls to eliminate or reduce the risk Reassess the activity after the risks have been managed Georgia Institute of Technology, 2002 8

20 Step Four: Brainstorm Methods to Manage Risk 20

21 Find strategies you can apply to reduce the severity of the risk and probability that something will go wrong Procure Summer Camp insurance for participants providing coverage that included accident, medical and general liability. Provide medical station to treat minor issues such as insect bites, sun exposure, sprains, etc. Request ATV’s to be provided by vendor in lieu of utilizing personal vehicles. Procure Inland Marine insurance on ATV’s in the event a unit is damaged during use. Monitor food preparation process for potential food safety concerns. Implement registration process to monitor participants. 21

23 Step Five: Determine if you have reached an acceptable level of risk by applying risk management strategies 23

24 Step Five Consider modifying or eliminating activities that have unreasonable risk associated with them. Remember to consider how the activities relate to the mission and purpose or your organization. 24

25 Additional Resources The Risk Management & Insurance Matrix is available on the Texas A&M University System website at http://www.tamus.edu/assets/files/safety/pdf/Sys temRiskAssessmentMatrix.pdf http://www.tamus.edu/assets/files/safety/pdf/Sys temRiskAssessmentMatrix.pdf 25

26 Alcohol, Illegal Drugs and Penalties 26

27 Alcohol, Illegal Drugs and Penalties 27 Public intoxication - Occurs when a person appears in public while intoxicated to the degree that the person may endanger himself/herself or others due to the impairment of mental or physical faculties. The officer is not required to give you a breath test or a field sobriety test to show that you are intoxicated. Generally you get to sober up in jail, unless there is a responsible sober adult that is willing to accept responsibility for you and the officer deems it not necessary for a trip to jail. Minor in Possession - A person who is a minor (under 21 years of age) who is found to be in possession on an alcoholic beverage of any kind is in violation. Minor in Consumption - Minor in consumption is just that! Just taking a sip of one beer violates the law. The only exception to this is if your parent or spouse is with you and giving you the alcohol to consume.

28 Alcohol, Illegal Drugs and Penalties Purchase / Furnish Alcohol to a Minor Fines: –Up to $4,000.00 –and Up to 1 yr. in Jail Furnishing alcohol to a minor or providing a place for a minor to consume alcohol is a serious Class A misdemeanor and is under the jurisdiction of the County Court. A Class A misdemeanor is one step below a felony. –Remember if you are having a party at your house –or apartment, you are responsible. If one minor is –found drinking at your party you are in violation. 28

29 Alcohol, Illegal Drugs and Penalties Driving While Intoxicated A person is Driving While Intoxicated when having a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 or more while operating a motor vehicle. The 1st offense is a Class B misdemeanor Fines:Confinement in jail for up to 180 days, a fine up to $2,000 and driver’s license suspension 90 days to 1 year The 2nd offense is a Class A misdemeanor Fines:Confinement in jail a minimum of 30 days & up to one year, a fine not to exceed $4,000 and driver’s license suspension 180 days to 2 years The 3rd offense is a third degree felony Fines: 2 to 10 years in prison, a fine not to exceed $10,000, an driver’s license suspension 180 days to 2 years (Fines do not include court cost and lawyer fees) 29

31 Alcohol, Illegal Drugs and Penalties Methods of Control Check IDs at the door and use a unique way of identifying those over the legal drinking age, such as with bracelets. Hire professional security to work the door and check IDs. Serve non-alcoholic beverages and food. Set a starting time and ending time for the party and stick with them, limit party to four hours. Do not permit drinking games Maintain control of all alcoholic beverages present. Do not allow bottles. 31

32 Alcohol, Illegal Drugs and Penalties What Should You Do?

33 Sample University Alcohol, Illegal Drugs and Penalties Scenario (Insert a scenario) 33

34 Hazing 34

35 Hazing “Hazing” is defined as any intentional or reckless act occurring on or off the campus of an educational institution, by one person alone or acting with others, directed against a student that endangers the mental or physical health or safety of that student for the purpose of pledging, being initiated into, affiliating with, holding office in, or maintaining membership in any organization whose members are students at an educational institution. 35

36 Hazing Hazing Does Not Help you to assimilate better into the group/organization Help you build inner strength Take into account the psychological state of an individual Have boundaries or follow safe-guards that govern actions, or activities Have to be illegal, and/or involve ingesting something Represent the only creative alternative bond activity 36

37 Hazing Hazing Does Create a cycle of abusive behavior Create a false sense of power and control Display an absence of constraints or boundaries Humiliates, degrades, and embarrasses 37

38 Hazing Prevent Hazing Recognition of hazing Follow the Student Handbook, Charter and/or National Policy Stand-up for what is right – even if it is against “traditions” Secret = Hazing Groupthink 38

39 Hazing Scenario (Insert your scenario here) 39

40 Sexual Abuse & Sexual Harassment 40

41 Sexual Abuse-Sexual Harassment Sexual Harassment is “unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature…[and]…can include unwelcome sexual advances, request for sexual favors, and other verbal, nonverbal, or physical conduct of a sexual nature. Federal law prohibits sexual harassment of college students whether the harasser is an employee or another student. Sexual Abuse – includes a wide range of unwanted sexual behaviors, including: sexual assault/murder, aggravated sexual assault, sexual assault, which can be forced contact or coercive in nature, indecent exposure, obscene phone calls, sexual harassment, voyeurism, grinding, peeping, etc. HB 2639 utilizes the term sexual abuse in an effort to encompass all of the above behaviors. However, for this risk management training sexual assault will be discussed more. 41

42 Sexual Abuse-Sexual Harassment 20 to 25 percent of college women are sexually assaulted during their college career (The American Association of University Women, 2004) In 2003, one in every 10 sexual assault victims were male (US Dept of Justice, 2003) In 2005, about seven in ten female rape or sexual assault victims stated the offender was an intimate, other relative, a friend or an acquaintance (Nat’l Crime Victimization Survey), Alcohol continues to be the number one drug used to facilitate a sexual assault (US Dept of Justice) 42

43 Sexual Abuse-Sexual Harassment Members of the university community, guests and visitors have the right to be free from sexual violence, abuse, and harassment. In order for individuals to engage in sexual activity of any type with other, there must be clear, knowing and voluntary consent prior to and during sexual activity. Consent is defined as positive, unambiguous, and voluntary agreement to engage in specific sexual activity throughout a sexual encounter. Consent cannot be inferred from the absence of a "no." A clear "yes," verbal or otherwise, is necessary. Consent to some sexual acts does not imply consent to others, nor does past consent to a given act imply present or future consent. Consent must be ongoing throughout a sexual encounter and can be revoked at any time. 43

44 Sexual Abuse-Sexual Harassment Consent cannot be obtained from someone who is asleep or is otherwise mentally or physically incapacitated, whether due to alcohol, drugs, or some other condition. A person is mentally or physically incapacitated when that person lacks the ability to make or act on considered decisions to engage in sexual activity. Engaging in sexual activity with a person whom you know -- or reasonably should know -- to be incapacitated constitutes sexual misconduct. 44

45 Sexual Abuse-Sexual Harassment How to Reduce the Risk of Sexual Assault Educate Yourself Look out for your friends Stay in Groups Never be alone with someone you don’t know Never leave your beverage unattended Decide what your limits are and communicate them clearly Learn to be assertive Do not assume anything TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS 45

46 Sexual Abuse-Sexual Harassment If you have been Sexually Assaulted Find a safe environment Preserve evidence of the attack Report the attack as soon as possible Seek medical attention Find out about your resources 46

47 Sexual Abuse-Sexual Harassment Helping Victims Let victims make decisions Listen with patience Active Listening Provide victims with information and referrals 47

49 Fire and Life Safety 49

50 Fire and Life Safety Events may have inherent physical risks that require contingency plans including: –Fire Safety –Inclement Weather –Camus Emergency 50

51 Fire and Life Safety General Fire/Life Safety Guidelines Organizations should have Emergency contact numbers for Fire, Police, & Ambulance posted near common phones. Prior to any event plan & provide for all facilities used for event: Evacuation routes Shelter Must know specific location description to direct emergency services. The possession of firearms or explosive devices of any kind is forbidden. 51

52 Fire and Life Safety General Fire/Life Safety Guidelines Be sure to call authorities to notify them of the emergency. Most locations have 9-1-1 service Verify emergency contact number before event First priority is to ensure safety of attendees Have some method of accounting for attendees location Initiate appropriate actions in response to the emergency 52

53 Fire and Life Safety Fire Safety Fire – evacuate building; Do not allow anyone to re-enter a building until cleared by the proper authority There are several common causes of accidental college fires: Careless smoking Unattended candles, incense, perfume burners Cooking Overloaded extension cords and power outlets Leaves and debris located near buildings Unattended cooking grills Improper use of surge protectors 53

54 Fire and Life Safety Life Safety Tips Report to administration, landlord, etc. defective or inoperable fire protection equipment. Do not tamper with fire protection equipment. Know your evacuation routes in apartments, houses, hotels, conference centers, etc. Keep egress hallways and exits clear of obstructions. –If you observe a fire: Activate the fire alarm system to notify building occupants of the emergency Notify the University Police or the Stephenville Fire Department of the fire Evacuate the building Remain outside until notified by the fire department the building is safe to re-enter 54

55 Fire and Life Safety Inclement Weather If City Tornado Siren sounds travel to the interior of the structure. An interior restroom provides better protection for most buildings. Place Sample University website link here Know the “Areas of Refuge” in each building on-campus. Place Sample University website link here Review Sample University Inclement Weather Policy Place Sample University website link here Know about Sample University Lightning Detection System Place Sample University website link here Emergency Notification Text System Place Sample University website link here 55

56 Fire and Life Safety Campus Emergency Review and know the following procedures if any of the following occur: Terrorist/Shooter – follow directions of emergency personnel through your campus emergency notification system. Bomb Threat – review guidance contained in the University Emergency Guide. Place Sample University website link here Injury Accident – know basic First Aid protocol Place Sample University website link here 56

58 Travel 58

59 Travel General Requirements Sample University Student Travel Rule (Place reference here) Must be at least 18 years of age Prefer rental vehicles be used if possible Must have personal automobile insurance and registration as required by state law if personal vehicle to be used 59

60 Travel Things to Think About Consider alternative methods of transportation Anticipate or prepare for emergency expenses associated with travel Transportation in open beds of trucks should be avoided Arrangements for transporting impaired individuals Plan to take a 15 minute break for every two hours of driving 60

61 Travel More Things to Think About When assigning someone to perform a task involving driving, consider their physical and mental state Length of trip and number of available driver Does your location provide easy ingress and egress –Emergency vehicle access –Stranding during bad weather 61

62 Travel Scenario (Enter your scenario here) 62

63 Behavior at Parties and Social Events 63

64 Behavior at Parties Can Our Organization Be Held Responsible for an Individual’s Behavior? YES! It can depend on number of members attending BUT most importantly… You assume responsibility if the activity is related to the organization 64

65 Behavior at Parties Organizations may be held responsible when… acts of individual members are directly related to the student organization's activities member is violating local, state, or federal law or University regulations and other members present fail to discourage such activity Remember … in addition to the group being held responsible, members, officers, and even advisors may be held individually responsible for an individual members actions. 65

66 Behavior at Parties Prevent Potential Problems Communicate organizational and University expectations to members BEFORE there’s a problems Know the law Use good judgment when… –Choosing to attend the party/event –Posing for pictures which could be posted to social networking sites –Staying at the party/event if you detect illegal/risky behavior 66

67 Behavior and Parties Scenario (Enter your scenario here) 67

68 Individuals With Disabilities Under state and federal law and A&M System policy, no individual will be excluded from participation in, or be denied the benefit of, or be subjected to discrimination, based on disability under any system program or activity. This includes extracurricular programs such as student organizations and club sports and activities. This may mean making reasonable modifications and providing aids and services that are necessary to ensure that qualified individuals with disabilities have an equal opportunity to participate, unless to do so would fundamentally alter the program. 68

69 Individuals With Disabilities A person with a disability is one who (1) has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities; (2) has a record of such an impairment; or (3) is regarded as having such an impairment. A&M System programs and activities will not operate on the basis of generalizations, assumptions, prejudices, or stereotypes about disability generally, or specific disabilities in particular. If you have any questions or concerns about making accommodations for individuals with disabilities, contact your Section 504/ADA Coordinator. 69

70 Risk Management Training Next Steps Within 45 days following completion training, the officers or advisors receiving the training must: Report the program content at a meeting of the full membership of the recognized student organization Submit to the Office of Student Activities a signed statement saying the report was made Submit to the Office of Student Activities a copy of the meeting agenda or a flyer detailing the topics covered at the meeting Adopt a risk management policy for the organization 70

71 Attendance and Documentation Requirements Must Take Attendance at the Presentation Must impose reasonable sanctions on a person who is required to attend and fails to attend Must maintain for three years record of attendance and notice provided under Subsection (h) 71
