Assumption of Risk

Assumption of Risk

All classes, programs, and extracurricular activities within the university involve some risk, and certain ones involve travel. The university provides opportunities to participate in these programs on a voluntary basis. Therefore, students should not participate in them if they do not care to assume the risks. Students can ask the respective program leaders/sponsors about the possible risks a program may generate, and if students are not willing to assume the risks, they should not select that program. By voluntarily participating in classes, programs, and extracurricular activities, students do so at their own risk. General information about university risk management policies, insurance coverage, vehicle use policies, and risk management forms can be found at www.usu.edu/risk.
