Policy Details

With the exception of existing long-standing camps, student groups cannot sponsor multi-day or overnight camps. Camps and similar programs, especially those designed for youth, are complex and require consistent and stable university oversight. Only well-supervised camps with sufficient staff support can meet the university's best practices for student-led camps. Exceptions will only be considered in rare circumstances and only with an active university department sponsor.

Event Planning Guidelines

Recognized student organizations have the privilege of sponsoring events in the name of Stanford provided that they follow university policy, stay true to their approved mission and scope and work in close coordination with the university.
