Facility Guidelines

Fire Safety

All events must comply with ASU’s Fire Safety Policy. If fire safety violations are present, the event may be interrupted or canceled. Venues must have clearly marked fire exits, and occupancy limits must be strictly followed. If a fire alarm sounds, house lights will be raised as necessary, and attendees will be directed to evacuate or follow instructions from fire safety or fire department personnel.

Smoking

ASU is a tobacco-free campus. Smoking, e-cigarettes, vape pens, and illegal drugs of any kind are prohibited in all campus facilities.
