NACA Risk Management Institute 
July 20-22, 2009

presented by NACA and Stetson University College of Law
July 20-22 | International House in New Orleans (LA)


Effective risk management is quickly becoming a core function for campus professionals who specialize in student activities, student affairs, judicial affairs, athletics, Greek life, and residence life.  Indeed, one state now mandates that campus officials participate in annual risk-management training. The NACA/Stetson University College of Law Risk Management Institute will offer higher education professionals the opportunity to deepen their understanding of risk management principles and to enhance their skills in managing the risks of college student activities.

Institute participants will interact with facilitators and other participants to learn about both general and specific topics related to the culture, structure, resources, tools, and techniques that will help them to manage and balance risks created by their university’s programs and activities.  The Institute will focus on pertinent legal, policy, and leadership issues that implicate evolving standards of risk management both on and off campus.  Sessions will be structured to allow for active learning through case studies and other problem-solving methods.

 Instructors:

  • Darby Dickerson, J.D., Dean, Vice President, and Professor of Law, Stetson University
  • Peter Lake, J.D., Charles A. Dana Chair and Director, Center for Excellence in Higher Education Law and Policy, Stetson University
