3.7 Use of Shared Areas and Reserving Rooms

University Housing may limit the use of shared areas to outside organizations due to public health concerns or in case of an emergency.

The coordinator for residence education or graduate assistant in each residence is responsible for approving the reservation of the shared areas.

Reservations are on a first come-first-served basis.

It is the responsibility of the coordinator for residence education to confirm with the proper reservation request.

Registered Student Organizations (RSOs), University Housing staff, or residents are given preference over outside entities when reserving space.

All events must fall within the guidelines set by the Office of Student Accountability and the University Housing policies.

Outside student organizations/entities may reserve a shared area of a residence hall by contacting the coordinator for residence education at least 2 business days in advance. For secured spaces, outside student organizations/entities can follow the process listed under the Housing Room Reservation Process explained below.

Anyone reserving a room is responsible for removal of all trash and resetting and sanitizing tables and chairs before leaving.

A charge may be assessed if the room/ area needs more housekeeping attention after an event (excessive trash or extra cleaning required).
