Reserving a room on the Purdue campus can be a hassle if you don’t do it properly. But with the right tools and knowledge, you can easily book the perfect space for your next event.
How to Reserve a Room on Campus
The first step is to find a room that meets your needs. You can do this by using the Purdue Room Reservation system. This system allows you to search for rooms by type, size, and location.
Once you’ve found a few rooms that you’re interested in, you can click on the ‘Reserve’ button to start the reservation process. The system will ask you for some basic information, such as the date and time of your event, the number of people who will be attending, and the purpose of your event.
Here are some tips for reserving a room on campus:
- Book early. The best rooms go fast, so it’s important to book your room as soon as you know when you’ll need it.
- Be flexible with your dates and times. If you’re not able to get your first choice of room, be willing to compromise on the date or time of your event.
- Consider your audience. When choosing a room, think about the needs of your audience. For example, if you’re hosting a large event, you’ll need a room that can accommodate a lot of people.
- Take advantage of the amenities. Many rooms on campus come with amenities such as projectors, whiteboards, and sound systems. Be sure to take advantage of these amenities when booking your room.
