About
The DGC seeks to minimize the University’s human, financial, and legal exposures to loss. The DGC works to accomplish this by assisting the University’s Risk Manager with the following:
- Identifying and evaluating risks;
- Establishing policies, procedures, and programs to ensure loss control;
- Providing “best practices” in areas of risk;
- Training and educating University departments with respect to insurance and appropriate claims reporting requirements;
- Providing advice regarding ways to reduce risk with programming, including off-campus activities; and
- Reviewing contracts to ensure that appropriate protective clauses are included and that the contracts meet legal sufficiency.
