University Housing has established the following policies and procedures to help ensure personal safety and protection of property. Conference guests are responsible for adhering to these policies and procedures during their stay on campus.

  • Insurance Requirements
    • The Client agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Florida State University Board of Trustees, Florida State University, their staff, employees, from any and all claims, liabilities, and cause of action for personal injury or property damage of whatever nature allegedly arising from the negligent acts or omissions of Client or Client’s officers, agents, representatives, employees, invitees, camp/conference participants, or persons contracting with Client. Client shall provide Conference Services with evidence of insurance naming the Florida State University Board of Trustees and Florida State University as additional insureds and protecting insureds against the aforesaid Claims in the minimum amount of $500,000 per person, $1,000,000 per occurrence (preferably combined single limit). For state agencies (including schools in the State/County System), the Client shall carry liability insurance or shall be self-insured with minimum limits of $200,000 per person, $300,000 per occurrence. Evidence of this insurance shall be attached to and made part of this agreement prior to execution. No agreement shall be created until it is executed by both parties.
    • Conference Services expressly excludes and disclaims all responsibility for damages or injury to property and/or persons arising out of use of residential facilities under this agreement, except as proximately caused by the negligent acts or omissions of Conference Services, its employees, agents, or representatives. The Client assumes all risk of loss or damage to the personal property of the Client, its officers, agents, representatives, employees, invitees, and camp/conference participants placed upon the premises in connection with the Client’s use of the premises under this agreement. The Client agrees that nothing contained in this agreement shall be construed as an extension of the waiver of the State’s sovereign immunity beyond the limited waiver expressed in Section768.28, Florida Statutes, and expressly acknowledges that Conference Services will have no liability beyond that provided by statute
    • Clients that do not regularly carry insurance should inquire into the Tenant User’s Insurance Liability Policy (TULIP). This temporary insurance will cover the group while they are staying on site with University Housing. For more information, please contact the Assistant Director for Conference Services.
    • *Please note: Persons who are representing a group that is sponsored by Florida State University, or those representing a group that is sponsored by a Florida State University department (non-athletic), DO NOT need this*
    • **If needed insurance paperwork is not sent into Conference Services prior to arrival, we will not be able to allow your group to stay with us. This information is mandatory for everyone who does not qualify from the note above.**
