MEAC stands for:Major Events Assessment Committee 

MEAC Defined: The university committee responsible for evaluating events for possible impact on campus functions or activities and concerns regarding safety or security, and for determining if an event should be classified as a major event. The MEAC is comprised of the Fire Marshal and representatives from the following university departments: UVU Police, Academic Scheduling, Emergency Management, Risk Management, Parking Services, General Counsel, and Event Services. 

The Major Event Assessment Committee is tasked with setting protocols to ensure the UVU community enjoys all the rights and benefits that go along with the freedom of speech as outlined in UVU Policy 161 while following facility operating policies, having proper security, orderly space and resource availability, and prevention of substantial interference with the university's educational activities. 

Major Event Assessment Committee will assess the level and nature of security necessary to protect people, property, and freedom of speech. Objective factors for consideration include but are not limited to: (a) the proposed location of the event, (b) the estimated number of participants, (c) the time of the day that the event will take place, (d) the date and day of the week of the event, (e) the proximity of the event to other activities or locations that may interfere, obstruct, or lessen the effectiveness of the security measures being implemented, (f) the personnel and equipment needed to secure the event, (g) the anticipated weather conditions, (h) the estimated duration of the event, and (i) any other objective viewpoint-and content-neutral considerations relevant to assessment of security needs. 

The Major Event Assessment Committee will determine, based on its security assessment, those actions, contingency plans, or conditions deemed necessary to coordinate adequate security, ensure space availability, and prevent substantial interference with the University's educational activities. The Committee will offer security recommendations to the event coordinator to follow order for the event to take place. 

• For the purposes of determining Major Events (including but not limited to celebrations, dances, lectures, forums, performances, rallies, social gatherings, concerts, speaker presentations, meetings, and conferences) to be held, in part or in full on Utah Valley University property, major events are classified as one of the following but are not limited to: 
• The number of anticipated attendees exceeds limits established by the Major Events Assessment Committee (MEAC) as an event with 400 or more attendees 
• The MEAC determines, through a security assessment, that the event is likely to significantly affect campus safety and security or significantly affect campus services; 
• The MEAC determines that the event has a substantial likelihood of interfering with other campus functions or activities; 
• The event is a dance, athletic event, or concert, regardless of how many attendees, unless otherwise exempted by criteria established by the MEAC. 

If there are any significant changes to a scheduled major event, such as a location or date change, the Major Events Assessment Committee must review the event again for space availability, security, and potential interference with educational activities even if the event has already been approved. 

Event sponsor(s) must meet with the Major Event Assessment Committee, or its representative, to review event details at least two weeks before the event.
