General Use Guidelines

Appropriate Uses

(Weekly Meetings approved based on space availability)

  • Capacity limit is 50.
  • Reservations should be submitted at least 3 weeks prior to your event.

Hours of Operations

Staffed Hours:

Monday - Friday 9am – 10pm

Saturday and Sunday 11am - 3pm 

Furniture

All property of the SCEC Multicultural Programs Lounge must remain within the space. Property includes tables, chairs. audio/video equipment, ottomans, and podiums. General rule of thumb: if you or your group does not own the item in question, then it cannot be removed from the space.

Furniture such as tables and chairs may be used and rearranged within the space for meetings and events, but the furniture must be returned to its original location immediately following the meeting or event.

Space is reserved as is. Up to 2 additional 6-foot tables can be requested for reservations with catering contracts. Please indicate if you will need additional tables in your request.

Cleaning Policy

Groups are responsible for restoring the space to its original condition upon the conclusion of their event. Failure to clean up will result in a re-evaluation of the group’s reservation privileges.

Recyclable items should be placed in the appropriate receptacle located in the Kitchenette.

All large items (i.e. pizza boxes) must be broken down and placed in a suitable trash can in or out of the Multicultural Programs Lounge (MPL).
