Committee members draw on their expertise to review event requests subject to the quota system we’ve adopted for student associations. The members meet as often as needed, reviewing requests in a concerted, balanced manner and making consensual decisions. This approach ensures that each request is assessed carefully based on criteria that include the relevance of the desired event, how original and creative it is, and its purpose. Safety and security are also taken into account
The Committee aims to distribute opportunities equitably from one year to the next. As a result, all requests have an equal chance of being approved, and the Committee is able to strike the right balance in its event planning.
Here are some of the decision criteria:
- Relevance to the EPFL community: whether the event will bolster the engagement and involvement of our community members.
- Originality: how creative the event is and whether it will garner interest.
- Event purpose: whether the purpose is clear and worthwhile (e.g., to celebrate an achievement or raise funds).
- Fairness in overall event planning: whether approving the event would be consistent with the goal of fairness from one year to the next.
