Occidental recognizes the role student-led events play in providing a vibrant campus community.  To provide the best possible atmosphere for living and learning together as a community, students may not coordinate events that occur during College-designated reading days or final examination periods. Students wanting to host events using campus resources must have contact with the Student Leadership, Involvement & Community Engagement (SLICE) office to determine necessary procedures for event registration. An event must be registered and approved based on event policies and procedures.
