In consideration of the opportunity to participate as a Volunteer at Duquesne University, I understand that I am required to review, acknowledge and agree to the following:
1. I agree to comply Duquesne University’s Volunteer Guide and Procedures. I also agree to comply with all University rules and regulations applicable to my presence at Duquesne, including the TAPS which are incorporated herein by reference. This includes, but is not limited to Duquesne University TAP 50 if my volunteer duties include working with minors. I further agree to abide by all applicable Duquesne Environmental Health & Safety policies and requirements, available at: duq.edu/ehs, and I agree that I shall abide by all applicable NCAA rules and regulations.
2. I agree to comply with the requirements of the Department and Supervisor(s) directing my volunteer assignment.
3. I agree that if I am not a U.S. Citizen, I will seek approval form the Office of International Programs before participating in this volunteer experience.
4. I understand and agree that I am not a University employee and that my participation in these volunteer activities is not in exchange for any consideration (e.g., pay, benefits, or the promise of future employment).
5. I understand that, during the course of my volunteer service with Duquesne University, I may become aware of certain proprietary and/or confidential information. Proprietary and/or confidential information means information that is not generally known to the public. I agree to keep such information confidential to the greatest extent possible and not to use such information for my own personal gain.
6. I certify that I am physically and emotionally capable of fully participating in volunteer service with Duquesne University. I assure Duquesne University that, to the best of my knowledge, information and belief, I am physically able to engage in the Activity without any undue or unusual risk to me or to others.
7. I understand that good faith efforts will be made relating to my safety and good health. I therefore agree to assume and take on myself all of the risks and responsibilities in any way associated with volunteer service at Duquesne University. I choose to voluntarily participate in volunteer service at Duquesne University with full knowledge that it may be hazardous to me and my property.
8. I grant Duquesne University permission to authorize emergency medical treatment, as deemed necessary by the Volunteer Coordinator or other designated University personnel. I understand and agree that Duquesne University assume no responsibility for any injury or damage which might arise out of or in connection with such authorized emergency medical treatment. Additionally, I certify that I possess my own health insurance and in the event of an injury or accident, I agree that my personal insurance will cover any expenses. I understand that University insurance will not cover these expenses.
9. I agree to exercise common sense and good judgment and to conduct myself at all times in a manner that is appropriate to this type of experience. I recognize that by breaking any of these promises or for any reason deemed appropriate by Duquesne University or its representatives, my participation in the volunteer event or service may be immediately terminated.
10. I agree that I am over 18 years old and I have read and understood this entire statement.
In consideration of my voluntary role to assist with an alumni event on behalf of Duquesne University, I agree as follows:
1. For purposes of this agreement, “confidential information” is defined as information disclosed to me or known by me as a consequence of my leadership position, and not generally known outside of the Office of Alumni Relations or Office of University Advancement.
2. During the term of my leadership, and afterward, I will hold the confidential information of Duquesne University in trust and confidence, and will not use or disclose it or any embodiment thereof, directly or indirectly. I understand disclosure could be highly damaging to the University, its donors, alumni, or others.
3. I will not distribute or disseminate to others any confidential information that I might receive during the course of my membership, including information received in hard copy format or electronic format.
4. I understand that in the event that a constituent requests information, such as an address or telephone number of a University alumna/us, or wishes to have a message communicated, the University will act on behalf of the requesting party by mailing or emailing a request. I will not provide the information directly to the requesting party. University alumni who request information can also be directed to the University’s Alumni Online Community at http://www.MyDuquesne.duq.edu where other alumni have posted contact information they wish to share.
5. If in doubt, I will consult with an alumni or development officer before sharing any personal or financial information.
6. I understand that if I violate this Agreement, I may be subject to removal from my volunteer role, legal action, or both.
