Alcohol Policy

Brockport Auxiliary Services Corporation holds the only New York State liquor license on The College at Brockport campus.  With this license BASC Catering accepts the responsibility for promoting and maintaining positive use of alcohol at all events where alcohol is served in addition to conforming to all New York State Liquor Authority laws pertaining to on-premise licenses.

Cooper Hall is covered by the liquor license. All areas outside of Cooper Hall require a special temporary caterer's permit from the New York State Liquor authority when alcohol is to be served.  These permits require a minimum of 28 working days notice to the catering office and additional cost of $45.00, which is passed on to each customer.  Permit fees are not refundable if the event is canceled.

The New York State Liquor license does not allow alcoholic beverages to be brought by private parties.  All alcoholic beverage served at events must be obtained and served by a catering bartender.  Food and non-alcoholic beverages must always be provided where alcohol is being served.  Alcoholic beverages may not be taken from the service area. 

On-campus clubs and organizations must comply with The College at Brockport guidelines.

No one under the age of 21 will be allowed to purchase or consume alcohol at a BASC event.  Two forms of identification, including one picture ID, will be required for proof of age.  No one under the age of 21 may sign a contract for services involving alcohol.  At any event if anyone is found to have provided an alcoholic beverage to an underage customer, all bar privileges will be suspended immediately for the event and the University Police will be notified.

To assure compliance with BASC alcohol policy, the person or organization which contracts with BASC's catering services shall designate at the time BASC's services are booked, the name of one or more persons who shall be licensed to drive a motor vehicle for use at the event. That person shall not consume alcohol before or during the event and shall identify themselves to the manager on duty of the beginning of the event.  If in the opinion of the bartender or manager, a person attending the event is under the influence of alcohol, the bartender or manager shall notify the designated person who shall be responsible for the safe conduct or transportation of that guest from the event to their home or another safe place. If the designated person fails to cooperate, the manager will at the expense of the organization booking the event, obtain an escort for the guest and all bar privileges for the event will be suspended immediately.

All parties booking an event in which alcohol will be served will be required to review this policy and sign a statement.
