A multitude of activities is planned each year for Butler students. Every international student is encouraged
to participate in at least one campus activity and to seek out opportunities to become integrated into the
community. Additionally, there are special orientations and programming for new international students
prior to the start of the fall and spring semesters. All support services for new and returning international
students at Butler University are available by contacting the Office of International Student Services at ext.
9888. This campus is “user friendly.”
Late Night Event Policies
A “Late Night Event” is an event sponsored by a student organization(s) that extends past 11 p.m.
These events are on a Friday or Saturday night and are typically alcohol free. Recognized Butler University
student organizations may sponsor campus-wide late night social events on Friday and Saturday nights until
2 a.m.
The location for late night events shall be in Atherton Union, HRC and Hinkle West Gym. Events
must be registered four (4) weeks in advance with Conferences and Special Events and PuLSE. No events
will be scheduled the Friday prior to or during designated University extended breaks.
Butler has two late night event policies – one for events that are only open to the Butler student
community and the other is for events that may be opened to and promoted to individuals not associated
with Butler. The former, a “Butler only” event, requires a Butler faculty/staff advisor and a facility person to
be present. The latter policy requires security and a faculty/staff advisor to be present.
The complete policy and a Late Night Event Checklist can be obtained in the PuLSE office and
online in the policies for student organizations.
