Eventually, all student organiza
tions will undergo a risk assessment
as part of the annual process to gain
official University recognition. Some
organizations, depending on the risk
level of their activities, will have to
devise a proactive risk-management
plan, Novak said.
“Each group will have different
requirements. For example, the chess
club’s activities are not as high pro
file or high risk as the sky diving
club,” Novak said.
High-risk organizations such as
the sky diving club, Novak said,
will be required to meet certain
training standards, and the event
planning of other activity-intense
groups such as fraternities will t|e
more closely scrutinized.
“We’re going to walk them
through the event-planning process’,”
Novak said.
Jenny Hajovsky, president of the
Texas A&M Skydiving Club and a
senior psychology major, said that
although her organization is not di
rectly involved in sky diving ven
tures, routine functions like travel
ing to events requires proactive risk
management.
“They’ve really helped us ad
dress the main safety concerns and
make sure everything is in order,”
Hajovsky said.
Only 12 of the approximately
700 student organizations on cam
pus will be represented at the work
shops, Novak said.
