COVID-19 Event Protocols

 The Princeton Club of Austin will follow the university’s protocols for our events:

Princeton University recommends the following best practices for all alumni groups, including classes, regions and affinity groups who fall under the University’s 501(c)(3) umbrella:

  • Ensure that all attendees are aware of necessary public health guidance, including use of face coverings for indoor gatherings. Local health guidelines and CDC guidelines should be followed.

  • Provide expectations for vaccinated and unvaccinated attendees in the event marketing email and registration form.

  • For indoor events, provide a means for event attendees and guest speakers who are not current University faculty, staff or students to attest to being fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Include attestation question in registration or at the door (see sample “at the door” form).*

  • Track in-person event attendees, including their email information, for any indoor events. Maintain the list for two weeks after the event.

  • All event invitations should include: “Any individual who has tested positive for COVID-19, is waiting for COVID-19 test results, is showing COVID-19 symptoms, or has had close contact with a person who has tested positive for or who has symptoms of COVID-19 is kindly asked not to attend.”

  • Obtain and review a facility use agreement or contract for the rental of the facility to understand your liability in case the event needs to be postponed or canceled for public health issues.

For any questions, contact the Regional Affairs team at acra@princeton.edu

*Given vaccine availability, the Princeton Club of Austin welcomes unvaccinated children to indoor events, but recommends they follow the local masking guidelines.
