Dandelion Day Expectations

Expectations for Participation

��ǿ�� students, faculty and staff are invited to join us in celebrating Dandelion Day. River Campus undergraduates are the target audience, so some activities (including the concert) are open only to these students. This UR celebration is not open to the general public.
University IDs will be checked at the entrance of all activities, including the concert. If you want to participate, carry your University ID with you at all times. (If you plan to consume alcohol in the Dandelion Lounge tent, bring government-issued ID.)
For safety, Dandelion Day staff reserve the right to turn away guests exhibiting unsafe behavior, including those visibly intoxicated.

Relevant Information & Suggestions

If you or someone you see needs help, notify Public Safety: pick up a blue light phone, dial x13, or call (585) 275-3333.
Leave beverages, coolers, backpacks, and other large bags at home. Purses and small bags are allowed but are subject to search.
Wear sunscreen, stay hydrated, and eat healthily.
Use of grills, bonfires, and amplified sound systems are prohibited.
Pets should be left at home.
If you're not familiar with the Standards of Student Conduct you should review these expectations, as they will also be in effect on Dandelion Day.
Be responsible, stay safe, and have fun!

If you have any questions, please contact Brian Magee, Interim Director of Student Activities. Additional policies and expectations will be updated later as events are unveiled, so please check back prior to Dandelion Day.

A Message from Dean Anne-Marie Algier and SA President Daniel Pyskaty

Dear Yellowjackets:

Dandelion Day is coming! We are both very excited to celebrate this ��ǿ�� Tradition.

Anyway, we hope you are as excited as we are to welcome the spring weather with tons of fun activities. Dozens of your fellow students have been working very hard to plan this day full of free food in the Dandelion Lounge, novelties, rides, and school spirit. For more information about said food, activities, and spirit, check out the Dandelion Day website.

We write to you today to let you know about some basic expectations for Dandelion Day. To that end, please keep these things in mind:

As a reminder, all policies that are in effect during the normal course of the year are in effect on Dandelion Day and will be enforced accordingly. Please note that our policies prohibit open containers of alcohol.

If you are carrying a backpack, you may be approached, and the backpack may be searched. Similarly, if you are carrying a drink container or borg that is suspected to contain alcohol, then you will be asked to dump the contents and return the container to your room (or otherwise properly dispose of it).
Dandelion Day is a day planned for the current ��ǿ�� community. Therefore, it is not a time to invite siblings or alumni. In fact, the premiere event - the evening concert - is open only to current ��ǿ�� undergraduates. Please remember to have your University ID with you at all times throughout the day.

If you have any confusion about these policies, or hear differently, please let either of us know. We want to make sure the expectations of both safety and fun are very clear.

Each member of each class year, each member of each group, each resident of each residence hall must make an individual choice to keep this day safe.

We have no doubt that we'll be able to maintain a safe and fun tradition this Friday. We hope you enjoy your day half as much as we both will.

Meliora,

Anne-Marie Algier, EdD
Interim Dean of Students

SA President
