Academic Classroom and Lab Space

• Academic Classroom space is available on academic weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and can be reserved if available upon the time of request. Remember that you may need card access for certain rooms, which will require additional steps.
• Afterhours/Weekend Reservation Requests – if you need to reserve an academic classroom or lab space on the weekend or at other times when the academic buildings are locked, please first consider spaces in the Miller Campus Center.  If those spaces are not suited for your meeting/event or are unavailable, you will need to click on “Faculty/Staff Request Room When Building is Closed,” so that arrangements may be made in advance for building access, security, HVAC, etc.

• Students are NOT permitted to request academic space. An advisor or instructor must submit the request for student groups.

• Lab space and specialty rooms will require additional approval and may take additional approval time. Reservations require a lead time of seven days. Remember that you may need card access for certain rooms, which will require additional steps.

• Academic space reservations that involve more than just a space (i.e. catering, outside guests, etc.), require additional review/approval by Special Events; requester must contact Amber Baines – bainesa@canton.edu; (315) 386-7918.
