1. Purpose and
Scope
All University buildings and land belong to the University as a whole
and are subject to assignment and reassignment to meet the institution's
overall priorities and needs. The University Space Committee, which is chaired
by the Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor, approves all allocations of
university space including Centennial Campus and off-campus rental space,
except for space allocations in Holladay Hall, which are approved by the
Chancellor. Assignments are made after careful consideration of all relevant
factors and consultation with the units involved. Each College and Division
will establish a Local Space Committee to consider and prioritize local needs
and discuss space requests to be made to the University Space Committee.
The Local Space Committee will assure that all avenues to solve a space request
within the college/division have been explored before forwarding a space
recommendation to their respective Dean or Vice Chancellor.
2. Making A Space Request
Persons requesting new space, reallocation of space, or change in use of space
must submit a completed Space Request form to the University Space Committee.
Persons making requests may appear before the University Space Committee.
3. Preferred Space Priorities
The following priorities will be used in deciding
space allocations:
3.1 Availability of
safe and accessible teaching space to meet course offerings and curricular
needs will be highest priority.
3.2 Co-location of programmatically related activities should have a higher priority
than co-location of non-programmatically related activities.
3.3 If costs are involved
to occupy space, units with funding in place will receive a higher priority.
