Facilities Use Guidelines/Room Reservations
● Currently, the SPH Facilities Office can only reserve non-departmental classrooms and conference rooms in SPH 1 and 2.
o SPH 2 Level G computing labs must be reserved via Campus Computing Sites.
o Central Campus classrooms must be reserved via the Registrar's Office (734-763-2113 or ro.curriculum@umich.edu).
● SPH classrooms and conference rooms that are available to reserve, as well as room schedules and availability, can be found on the SPH Room Availability page.
● Room reservation requests must be submitted at least 3 business days in advance of the desired date and time of the event or activity.
● Only faculty and staff affiliated with SPH, and SPH approved student organizations can reserve SPH classrooms and conference rooms, and reservations are limited to SPH sponsored, SPH related activities.
● A separate Room Reservation Request Form must be submitted for each reservation required (except for regularly recurring meetings at the same day/time, which can be submitted on one form).
● Members of the SPH Community can use any unreserved and open room on a drop-in basis for same-day activities and events, before 3:00pm. If the electronic room schedule at the door states “free” or “unoccupied”, and the room is vacant, the room can be used until the next scheduled event.
● Room reservation requests after 4:00pm are typically scheduled in rooms 1655, 1690, 1755 SPH1 and 1020 SPH2. Room reservations after 4:00pm that require moveable tables and chairs will be scheduled in rooms 1680 or 3755 SPH1.
● The majority of SPH classrooms and conference rooms are locked between 3:00pm and 5:00pm for the evening, after the last class or reservation.
● Rooms must be vacated when locked for the day. When rooms are locked on Friday afternoon, they will remain locked for the weekend.
● Room 1535 SPH2 (Quiet Room) is available for SPH Students to reserve for activities requiring privacy (interviews, Zoom calls etc.), as well as GSI office hours. Reservations can be requested by sending an email to sph.studentaffairs.requests@umich.edu.
● Courses take precedence over other events when scheduling classrooms. Your reservation may be rescinded or changed if it conflicts with a course or exam.
Those who reserve SPH facilities will be fully responsible for any damage, loss, or destruction of university property that occurs as a result of an event or gathering.
Those reserving SPH facilities must ensure that their event does not, and those participating in their event do not:
● Violate any laws or University protocols.
● Disrupt University activities, operations, or the lawful activities of others.
● Obstruct human or vehicle traffic, including pathways, stairs, aisles, and other access points.
● Fail to cooperate with Division of Public Safety and Security officers or other University-authorized officials.
● Use facilities for purposes other than those designated by the University.
Failure to comply with these guidelines may result in revocation of room reservation privileges.
