Included in this event are various public activities andbeing such these activities are also a reflection of Missouri S&T and the St. Pat’s Festival to the local community, andany campus guest or visitors.

Missouri S&T recognizes the St. Pat’s Festival as one of the key events that frame our identity and consider the Festivalto be something which makes us unique amongst our peer institutions. So we ask that all participates bear in mind thatduring the St. Pat’s Festival, many people will be visiting Rolla to attend this event and several campus offices will beutilized as an opportunity to engage returning alumni, and to showcase our campus to various visitors.

The practice outlined below, combined with potential actions from the St. Pat’s Board represent the desire of the Boardand the University to ensure this event can remain a spotlight activity, in the spirit of celebrating the patron saint ofengineers and the collective creativity of our students.

Due to previous instances regarding inflammatory public remarks made with amplified sound during the St. Pat’sfestivities, the St. Pat’s Board in conjunction with the Office of Student Involvement, will collaborate in the followingmanner to ensure the free speech of participants is not limited, but is reviewed with the intent to minimize potential forgrievance from the community at large.

1. All participant materials will be submitted to Joseph Schweer for review by February 28, 2022.

2. Representatives from the Office of Student Involvement and St. Pat’s will collectively review submittedmaterials. The Office of Student Involvement will advise the board regarding language which will likely result ingrievances (those based upon orientation, ethnicity, etc. or which may expose St. Pat’s and the individual speaker to legalcharges).

3. Based upon the review, St. Pat’s will make a decision regarding whether the group may move forward toparticipate or if revisions will need to take place.

St. Pat’s has committed to informing participants ahead of time of the following:

1. There are times a group will go off script. In this event, St. Pat’s will be prepared to pull the mic whennecessary. Additionally, such behavior can result in the group’s disqualification.

2. St. Pat’s Board reserves the right to disqualify organizations for not adhering to the events’ rule. This mayinclude failure to submit your jokes and entries for consideration, deviating from the approved script, and presentingyour organization in a manner which may be construed as obscene or offensive.

3. There will be an announcement made at the start of Follies each day, below. It is suggested all participants bepresented with a printed copy as well.

a. “The views expressed here today do not reflect the views of the University of Missouri or theSt. Pat’s Celebration Board. Participants are reminded, and have been previously cautioned that 1)obscene behavior may be subject to the student conduct process, and 2) presentation of material thathas not been previously submitted may result in disqualifications from all Follies events.”

Ultimate decisions regarding content and participation are made by the St. Pat’s Board with consultation provided by theOffice of Student Involvement.
