Policies
Because of limited space, the University is only able to accommodate non-university groups and organizations on a limited basis.
Access to University facilities by a non-profit agency or organization for a meeting open to the public or for a public educational purpose that is consistent with the University’s mission is permitted. Such events are subject to room use fees for Non-Profit organizations (details available below).
Use of University facilities for purely commercial activities, political or fund-raising activities for a particular candidate, or activities inconsistent with the University’s mission are permitted on a case-by-case basis. Such use is subject to room use fees for For-Profit organizations.
Please note that if the campus is closed due to unforeseen circumstances, all activities and events are canceled as well. Information will normally be broadcast on local television stations and posted on UMA’s website. In the event of deteriorating conditions during the day, every effort is made to give two hours’ notice of any cancellations. Weather conditions and concerns for safety may sometimes require shorter notice. You may also call 621-3000 for up-to-date information about the status of campus opening or closing.
