Indoor Space Reservations
Housing & Residential Education (HRE) offers multipurpose spaces to support departmental, programmatic, and academic initiatives.
Eligible Groups
Academic Reservations
Instructors wishing to reserve a multipurpose space for academic courses should contact livinglearning@usf.edu for the request to be reviewed by the Program Director for Academic Initiatives and Living Learning Communities. Multipurpose spaces are reserved for credit-bearing courses supporting living-learning programs and departmental academic initiatives. HRE reserves the right to determine if a course meets the requirements for space reservations. There will be no charge to the department for these approved courses.
All requests for the fall semester should be submitted no later than May 15 to livinglearning@usf.edu, and all requests for the spring semester should be submitted no later than November 15. HRE is unable to accommodate any summer space reservations unless the course is associated with a residential-based program. A request is not a guarantee of space. The requester will receive confirmation of date, time, and location after the deadlines listed above.
HRE may be unable to accommodate all requests and reserves the right to deny any request. For courses held in The Village multipurpose rooms, card access will be granted by the Coordinators for Academic Initiatives in Residential Education prior to the beginning of the semester. Any card access changes should be requested through livinglearning@usf.edu.
Living Learning Communities
LLCs hosting events supporting academic or programmatic initiatives may reserve multipurpose spaces through the Coordinators for Academic Initiatives in Residential Education if the event exclusively supports residents in the LLC. There will be no charge for such events. For events not solely exclusive to LLC residents, the department must request use of the space (See "University Departments" section). Student Organizations (i.e. College or LLC Student Councils) are not eligible to reserve spaces through HRE.
Academic Initiatives
Faculty and Academic Partners wishing to reserve a multipurpose space for programmatic initiatives exclusively for residential students or in collaboration with HRE should contact livinglearning@usf.edu for the request to be reviewed by the Program Director for Academic Initiatives and Living Learning Communities. All requests should be submitted 4-6 weeks before the date of the program to livinglearning@usf.edu. A request is not a guarantee of space. The requester will receive confirmation of date, time, and location once the space reservation is confirmed.
University Departments
University departments may reserve multipurpose spaces when available. HRE is unable
to accommodate recurring reservations. Departments will be charged for use of the
space according to HRE's rental rates and will be billed by interdepartmental transfer.
Departments may inquire about rates by emailing housingspacerequest@usf.edu. Departments shall not use their privileges for access to HRE multipurpose spaces
inappropriately for another group. Departments are not to reserve space for meetings,
which they are not directly involved in, and present at. Multipurpose spaces in The
Village are unavailable to university departments.
Camps and Conferences
Camps and conferences approved to be housed on the USF-Tampa campus may reserve multipurpose spaces during their on-campus residency. Reservations will be reviewed and coordinated by Housing Services and groups will be charged for use of the space according to HRE's rental rates. Camps and conferences should email guesthousing@usf.edu for space reservations. Multipurpose spaces in The Village are unavailable to camp and conference groups.
HRE reserves the right to determine if an external organization is eligible to reserve a multipurpose space.
