1. Event History
As a sponsor, it is important to review the history of your special event or any similar one that has taken place on campus. Special events or sponsoring organizations with a history of disrupting the normal operations of the University may be required to have higher planning & preparation levels. Use what you learned from prior activities to enable you to have a efficient & smooth running special event.

2. Special Event History
Reviewing a prior special event similar to your event that has taken place at the University gives:
Your service providers and the Event Services Committee understanding on how to provide for your activity from those past special event experiences
You have an advantage by showing that the University has successfully hosted a special event such as yours in the past & you can use those same plans in you special event coordination
Both you & your service providers / Event Services Committee have a chance to review the pitfalls of the pervious special event & collaboratively make plans on making the experience more positive this time around

3. Prior Event’s Lessons
Incorporate the lessons learned from previous special events to enhance future special events and prevent future incidents that mirror mistakes of the past
Below are concepts to consider when considering the lesson you learned from a past special event:
