Campus Partners Resources

The Conference Services and Events Office will offer guidance to the coordination of a campus department event or meeting. We welcome you to contact our office to talk through your plans, however, you will be responsible for contacting appropriate departments for your needs. In order for this coordination to happen in a timely and efficient manner for all departments, we have developed a standard timeline to be used when planning your event. This guide reflects deadlines that service providers have requested, so they can deliver a quality product to you and your event in an appropriate time frame. When these deadlines are not honored, workloads and other institutional priorities can become adversely affected.

Space – 4 weeks

Request space well in advance of your event by using 25Live. Depending on the exact space needs we recommend at the very minimum one month in advance. For larger events 3-4 months is suggested. Keep in mind that reserving your space only reserves the room. You must arrange set-up/clean-up of space, catering, campus services, and audio-visual separately.
