Scheduling of Facilities

The Office of the Registrar coordinates the use of academic classrooms for both academic and non-academic events. The Events and Hospitality Management office manages reservations for the Havener Center, Innovation Lab (Forum and Atrium), Welcome Center, Leach Theatre, and outdoor spaces. Some facilities are scheduled by specific offices (e.g., the Athletic Department manages athletic venues).
