- Any loss or damage to any personal property left unattended during an event organised by the university unless caused by the negligence of the university or its employees; or
- Death or any personal injury suffered by you at a university event unless caused by the negligence of the university or its employees.
The University has the right to refuse you and your guests entry to the event if you are late or if you are abusive to staff or other guests attending the event. The ticket desk will close 30 minutes prior to the start of the ceremony. If you arrive after this time you will not be permitted entry to that ceremony. The University is not obliged to offer you an alternative ceremony under these circumstances, Once you have collected your tickets you must ensure you enter the Cathedral 15 minutes before the event is due to start. If you do not arrive 15 minutes in advance the doors will be closed and you will not be permitted to enter. This is to avoid disruption to graduates and guests who have arrived on time and are seated waiting for the event to begin.The University cannot be held responsible for any costs incurred.
