Affil
iated Events Policy
\nThe association has gone to g
reat lengths and expense to negotiate and contract for a reduced room rate
at conference hotels. \;That rate is based upon the projected attenda
nce at the meeting. \;If corporate member and nonmember attendees elec
t to stay at other hotels\, it subjects the association to attrition penal
ties that can cause significant financial loss to the association. \;W
e count on our corporate community to support the association\, and one of
the ways to do that is to honor our efforts to secure a sufficiently larg
e room block at a reduced rate at a first class hotel/conference venue. &n
bsp\; \;
\n
For these reasons\, corporate member and no nmember attendees are prohibited from holding any meetings (briefings\, se minars\, etc.) within a 25-mile radius\, targeting professional\, continui ng\, and online leaders in higher education during the scheduled hours of UPCEA events unless otherwise negotiated and scheduled with and by UPCEA. Any such meeting occurring within 36 hours before or after the UPCEA confe rence must be coordinated with UPCEA and\, space permitting\, be held at t he conference hotel. \; This policy helps ensure that the association& rsquo\;s contracted obligations to the hotel for guest rooms and food and beverage minimums are met\, which is essential for the financial health of the association and its members. If UPCEA cannot find space for the corpo rate member or nonmember attendee&rsquo\;s event at the contracted hotel\, we will work to help find alternative space. \; In no circumstances\, however\, is it permissible for a corporate member or nonmember attendee to contract a separate hotel block\, either at the conference hotel or els ewhere. \;
\n\n
UPCEA reserves the right to prohibit cor porate member and nonmember attendees who violate this policy from exhibit ing or participating at UPCEA events.
