Student Community Center

posted by TERESA BROWN on 1/17/12   

Dear Event Planners:

We are excited to announce that the new Student Community Center opened Monday,  January 9th to the campus community.  The new center includes a 2,000 sq. multi-purpose room, five meeting spaces and state-of-the-art audio visual equipment.  Room capacities and rates are can be found on Conference and Events(CES) website within ‘Facility Information’ at
http://www.cevs.ucdavis.edu/Public/?SRVC=EVENT.

Reservations for meeting and event spaces will begin in stages.  Campus Departments will be able to make reservations for events and meetings through CES beginning March 28th through Sept. 13th (the end of summer quarter).  On Sept 23rd, the rooms will again become available for reservations and at that time will follow the campus standard of a 13 month advance reservation process.

The new center has started accepting reservations from Registered Student Organizations (RSO) for Winter Quarter only.  From now through Fall quarter 2012, Student Organizations will only be able to reserve rooms for the academic quarter that is currently in session. RSO’s can start placing reservations on the last day of instruction for the following quarter.  Room usage patterns for student groups will be evaluated at the end of fall 2012 before adopting the campus standard for RSO’s starting in winter 2013.

We are also pleased to announce that Rebecca Miller, Events Manager from the ARC/Pavilion, is the Facility Manager of the new Student Community Center in addition to her current duties.  Rebecca’s energy, enthusiasm and campus event experience will be an asset to our new Student Affairs operation.  

For more information or to the tour event spaces, please call 752-0997 or email sccreservations@ucdavis.edu.

Best Regards,

Stephanie

Campus Unions Facility Update

posted by TERESA BROWN on 6/10/11 - last edited by ANA KITCHEN on 2/3/12   

Memorial Union:

The Bookstore expansion project has been placed on hold and is being re-evaluated. At this point, the project impact to Freeborn and the MU will be stalled for at least a year.

Silo Union:

Campus Unions is sorry to announce that Cabernet room will be taken offline as an event space starting January 2nd, 2012. This space will become overflow dining and student lounge area.

Freeborn Hall:

Freeborn will be used for part time use as academic classroom space beginning winter quarter and beyond on Monday and Wednesday mornings from 8 am -12 pm.  The academic use of Freeborn will greatly help students get through some courses that have serious backlogs that threaten time to degree. They truly appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding through this difficult decision process.

Putah Creek Lodge:

This past winter CUES made improvements to the lodge which include new lighting and paint.  This summer CUES will install a new heating and air system and carpet.  The last of the improvement projects will include a restroom renovation which is currently planned for winter 2012.   In the spring, CUES will host an open house for the event planners.  If you would like to see the recent updates, please contact the Campus Unions at 752-1010.
