Services and Resources

From dining and catering to audiovisual support, parking, security and more, our team offers a range of services to support your event, conference, or stay. 

Support and Equipment Services

A four-hour minimum in staffing charges will apply for AV technicians and custodial services. Be sure to submit any cancellation requests up to five business days prior to your event to avoid additional fees.

Depending on event needs, one or more audiovisual technicians may be required for the Seven Hills Conference Center, Towers Conference Center, Student Life Event Center, McKenna Theatre, Little Theatre and Knuth Hall. 

Audiovisual equipment in these spaces must be provided by the University. Exceptions will only be given for equipment, which cannot be provided by the University.

Custodial services are required before and after all events, at the discretion of the venue manager and/or event services coordinator. 

 

For events with meals, custodial services may be required following each meal time. Large-scale events may require additional custodial services during the event to maintain restrooms and trash cans.

Be sure to request equipment at the same time you make your reservation to ensure availability. If you prefer to use your own AV equipment, you will need to make it available for testing and configuration on site at least 2 weeks before the scheduled event.

Furniture is available to rent for events hosted on campus, subject to availability. Delivery and pickup fees may apply.

Event rental vendors must be an approved vendor through the University’s vendor program. Please let your event coordinator know if you plan to have specialty rentals at your events.

The use of tents or canopies is permissible with prior approval. Be sure to inform your Event Coordinator as early as possible if you plan to use a tent of any kind.

Approval Requirements:

  • Unenclosed tents measuring 10 x 10 feet or smaller are approved by Conference and Event Services.
  • Enclosed tents or tents larger than 10 x 10 feet require approval by the State Fire Marshal. Your Event Coordinator will submit the requisite fire permits on behalf your behalf.
