Theft/loss insurance Elaine Young 12 Mar 2002 11:56 EST

Do other universities carry insurance to provide for theft/loss of
equipment?  If so, how is it paid for?

Suppose you have a very expensive sensor taken off campus for a project on
volcanoes - the equipment happens to fall into the volcano and is lost - the
project cannot be completed without that sensor - how is replacement
managed?

Thanks for any comments
