Effective 06/01/23
The Office of Event Services follows the university’s policy, 8.02 Facilities Use - Facility User Groups, in establishing fees for on-campus and off-campus users. The Office of Event Services reserves the right to determine whether or not an individual or group falls into one of the following university established categories:
FACILITY USER GROUPS
Group A: University groups including all departments and registered student organizations associated with the University and engaged in University business for a University audience.
Group B: Recognized University groups (See group A) using facility space and charging admission, registration fees, meal fees, or generating funds in any manner before, during, or after the event. This includes events (i.e., conferences, seminars, camps, meetings) that are sponsored or co-sponsored by university departments or individuals and are related to University activities. Registered student organizations may apply for rental waivers in the following cases:
- For room rentals where charges are strictly to recover costs associated with food/meals.
- For table rentals where all proceeds from activities are going to charity.
Group C: Non-affiliated groups including all profit and non-profit organizations, corporations, businesses, clubs and individuals not associated with the University. This includes events (i.e., conferences, seminars, camps, meetings) that are sponsored or co-sponsored by university departments or individuals but not related to University activities.
- C-Sales: Sales is defined as any selling, promotion, or acceptance of orders or contracts for any goods or services, before, during or after an event.
