Room Reservations

Campus Information and the Calendar Committee are ready to help you schedule your academic year events and reserve rooms for your organization on campus.

Reserving rooms is a privilege for recognized student organizations and departments on campus.

We ask that you make your reservations early and please follow these guidelines:

Step 1: Review the Campus Calendar

Check the Campus Calendar for major campus events that might conflict with your planning.

Step 2: Request a room

Planning an event in a Special Event Space or do you require set up or campus services for your meeting?

1. Request at least one month in advance to reserve and for setup and other campus services. Large events are subject to approval, which can take up to two months to consider.
2. Special event spaces include: the Centrum, the Maize, Morrie Jones Conference Center, Birkeland Alumni Lounge, Frida Nilsen Lounge, Memorial Auditorium, Olson Forum, Frances Frazier Comstock Theatre, or the Lab Theatre.
3. After you have received a confirmation email that your request was approved, proceed to Step 3.

Planning a meeting in a classroom, lounge, or non-Special Event Space and do not require any set up or campus services?

1. Request at least 2 business days in advance
2. Wait to receive a confirmation email that your request was received and processed
3. After you have received a confirmation email, your reservation is complete.

Step 3: Complete an Event Planning Form

The Event Planning Form is required in all special event spaces and for all events needing setup or services.

It is required 3 weeks in advance of your scheduled event. Please fill out the form thoroughly; including details of the event, a faculty/staff contact person, and the charge account # for billing purposes. Also required is the page 2 checklist, completed with all services and/or equipment you are requesting.

Please don’t hesitate to contact Room Reservations if you have any questions or need assistance with the Event Planning Form.

Step 4: Review the confirmation copy

You will receive an e-mail confirmation containing a copy of your completed and accepted Event Planning Form. This copy confirms the event and requested setup/services. Review and record your confirmation. Keep copies of your forms and requests. This will provide for an easier and faster process in the future with similar requests.

If changes are necessary or the event is canceled, please email roomres@cord.edu .
