Local constraints and refunds
The contingency plan for restrictions on in-person events and a guarantee if the competition cannot proceed.
Plan for changes to in-person events
The organizers acknowledged economic and fuel constraints and the restrictions public institutions may face around weekend gatherings. If a government mandate prevents the campus final, the stated contingency is to move the entire competition online, using a one-week buffer to make the change. The briefing discusses local logistics, possible restrictions on campus events, and the online contingency plan.
Refund if the event cannot run
The organizers also stated that entry fees would be fully refunded if a major global or domestic crisis made it impossible to run the event in any format. The refund guarantee is included in the session.
