Iowa Code r. 681-13.16 - Conduct at public events
The following rules are intended to ensure the safety of students, faculty, staff and visitors to the campus and to ensure widest enjoyment of the benefit of public events at Iowa State University.
(1) No person may engage in behavior that
causes or threatens injury or damage to property, that results in disruption of
a public event or that causes unreasonable interference with others' enjoyment
of a public event.
(2) Special
rules may be enforced with respect to events that are open to the public, based
upon the nature of the event. For example, performers may require that no
cameras or audio- or video-recording devices be permitted in the arena. Persons
may be refused entry with items that may be used as projectiles. Umbrellas and
other items that may obstruct the views of other attendees may be excluded from
facilities and grounds.
(3)
Possession of, carrying in or consumption of alcohol is not permitted at public
events. An exception may be made for the consumption of beer or wine served at
approved events for which a valid liquor permit has been issued as provided by
state law, and for designated events or designated areas at events.
Unauthorized alcoholic beverages are subject to confiscation.
(4) Aisles, walkways and stairs must be kept
clear of hazards and obstacles. Knapsacks, duffel bags, backpacks, bags or
other containers shall be small enough to fit completely on or under one seat,
and shall be so kept at all times.
(5) Laser pointers and similar devices are
not permitted at athletic and performing events and are subject to
confiscation. A person who uses any such device to interfere with athletes and
performances is subject to immediate removal from the facility and
grounds.
(6) Iowa State University
reserves the right to reassign parking and seating locations at public events
for purposes of access, efficiency or to reduce the likelihood of
disruption.
(7) Any person carrying
containers or bags which may contain materials not permitted at public events
may be required either to open the container or bag to assure compliance, or to
check the container or bag, if such facilities are available for storage of
such items, or to dispose of such materials, or to return the materials to the
person's automobile. In addition, a patron may be subject to search using a
magnetometer to ensure the absence of weapons or other hazardous or banned
materials.
(8) Auditorium doors
will be closed when performances begin. A latecomer may be required to wait to
be seated until an appropriate program break. Standing in aisles during
performances is not permitted, except by employees.
(9) In order to ensure that a person
attending events may enter facilities and grounds efficiently, a person leaving
the facility or grounds early in the event may be denied the right to secure a
pass to reenter.
