RESERVING UNIVERSITY FACILITIES
CARPENTER SPORTS BLDG, PEARSON GYM, CAMPUS FIELDS

Reserving the areas of campus listed above is a privilege that is offered to Registered Student Organizations.

All Registered Student Organizations must arrange use of the Carpenter Sports Building rooms, Pearson Gym, or Campus Fields by completing an Application To College Of Physical Education, Athletics and Recreation for Use of Carpenter Sports Building/Pearson Hall Gym.

A representative from the group must initiate the reservation by stopping by room 218 Trabant University Center and picking up and completing the form. The completed form must be delivered to the Carpenter Sports Building for processing after being signed by the Assistant Director of Activities & Programs or a designee.

Required Services

Required University services, such as custodial, security, etc., will be assigned and arranged by the administrators responsible for the supervision of the specific facility requested. Your organization will be billed for these services.

Most reservations are handled on a case-by-case basis due to the great amount of variety among facilities and programs. One general rule to note is that the larger the event; the more services will be required due to anticipated large crowds and special needs.

Services Desired by a Student Organization

If you want certain services when using a University facility (such as tables, chairs, staging, special lighting, audio-visual equipment, food, etc) you must first check with the Activities & Programs Office to see if the University provides the desired service. If it does, you must use the University service department as a resource. If the particular service(s) you want cannot be provided by the University, you may go to an outside service organization to fulfill your needs.
