The following agreements are required on the Girl Day Campus, Community, and Corporate Partners Application and Activity Registration in order to participate:

  • I understand my organization and volunteers must adhere to all university policies and procedures.
  • I understand that space is limited and the organizers do their best to accommodate all requests.
  • I understand my organization must complete a UT Austin Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Audit form by December 6, 2024, and have approval by UT EHS in order to participate in the event.
  • I understand a representative of my organization must attend a mandatory meeting in January in order to participate in the event.
  • My organization will make our assigned space work for our activity or demonstration and will adjust our activity or plans as needed.
  • I understand my organization must plan accordingly with materials and volunteers so that our activity will remain open throughout the duration of the event. Closing early is a major disappointment to visitors and does not reflect well upon the organizers, my organization, or the overall event.
  • I understand my organization must provide my own extension cords, power strips, technology, hands-on activity materials, etc. unless explicitly discussed and communicated with the organizers. These items are not provided.
  • I understand my organization must engage enough volunteers to manage my activity/demo throughout the entirety of the event. General volunteers may not be available to assist.
  • I understand all volunteers, employees, and representatives from my organization must complete the required online STEM Girl Day training for the safety and security of our guests and event participants.
  • I understand the signage, activity creation/testing zone, volunteers, etc. for my organization's activity must be confined to the space assigned out of respect for other organizations participating.
  • I understand that marketing and media, including communications with news outlets, must be coordinated through Women in STEM (WiSTEM) at UT Austin. My organization will use appropriate hashtags and tag event organizers when posting about the event.
  • I understand that UT Board of Regents prohibits solicitation on campus without an approved written agreement. Non-UT organizations may not sell anything on campus (swag, subscriptions, anything). UT Austin student organizations must get approval from WiSTEM for food or swag sales at STEM Girl Day.
  • I agree to read all organizer communications, pass on appropriate information to my volunteers, staff, and other organization leaders or participants, and follow all safety training requirements.
  • I agree to ensure our space/room/area is completely cleaned at the conclusion of the event. This includes ensuring all trash is appropriately disposed of in trash bags, all signs are removed, all materials are returned to their appropriate place, and the space/room/area looks like we have never been there.
  • I understand that my organization will be responsible for paying for any cleaning penalties or damage to our space/room/area including desks, floors, sidewalks, concrete, bricks, walls, ceilings, etc. Our organization will be notified within one week after STEM Girl Day about any charges and will be invoiced within one month of STEM Girl Day.
  • I agree to check out with the appropriate information tent or building coordinator or online as instructed before our organization departs the event.
