Event Payment Policy
91.7FM WCUR

Background: As part of WCUR’s commitment to serving the university community, our presence and services are requested at a variety of club, organization, and department events throughout the year. These events make use of our limited time and resources. Historically, we have given these services freely. However, with rising operational costs and limited human resources, it has become necessary to implement a payment structure for events.

The Events & Promotions Director shall be responsible for executing this policy, in consultation with the General Manager. In accordance with standard operating procedure regarding financial oversight, the General Manager will maintain final say in all event payment policy decisions.

1. The Events & Promotions Director (EVP) will, upon receipt of an event request from a recognized club or organization, or university department, inform the requesting party that payment will be required before proceeding.
2. The terms of payment will be 1 week prior to the Event Date.
3. Standard events, or events requiring a single, standardized PA System setup for no longer than 2 hours, will incur a fee of $50.
4. Non-Standard events, or events requiring more than 1 standardized PA system, and/or a non-standardized PA system, will incur a fee of more than $50, to be determined and negotiated with the requesting party.
5. At any time, for any reason, the General Manager may decide to waive the event fee.

Standardized PA System: a system including two speakers, a mixing console, a music source, and two microphone sources (wired or wireless), plus supporting power and cable equipment.
