Planning for Special Campus Events: The 2002 Winter Olympic Experience

Presenter(s): Don Adams, Sear Brown; Anne Racer, University of Utah
Convener: Roberta L. Derlin, New Mexico State University


At the University of Utah, the 2002 Winter Olympic Games presented some tremendous challenges, but also some exciting opportunities for a campus that was contemplating extensive changes during a master planning process. This session will highlight the process, the plans, and the long-term advantages gained by the university, particularly by its transportation system. The critical involvement of key stakeholders will be highlighted, as well as the university¹s use as a housing, venue and transportation hub.


This knowledge resource from SCUP is a concurrent session presented at the Society's thirty-seventh annual, international conference and Expo, SCUP–37, in San Diego, CA (USA), in July of 2002.

Audiocassettes of this and other SCUP–37 sessions are available for purchase here.

Due to our concern for the privacy of members of the face-to-face audiences at SCUP–37, our digital archives of SCUP–37 presentations end at the beginning of the question and answer portion of each session. Whenever we can, we not only provide streaming audio but the slide show or visual presentation used by the presenters, as well.
