Stanley Hall: Special Events General Policies & Guidelines

All campus departments using reservable spaces in Stanley Hall must adhere to the General Policies and Guidelines in addition to the campus Codes of Conduct. Failure to comply will affect future reservation requests.

All special event requests must be approved by Stanley Facilities.

No signs, posters, banners, balloons or decorations may be affixed to the interior or exterior of the building. If needed, signs MAY be displayed using easels. Doors cannot be propped open at any time. Stanley Hall does not provide tables, chairs or easels for events.

If spaces are not cleaned and/or not returned to their original configurations (e.g. tables and chairs returned to their original location in the B1 Atrium), additional fees will be charged to the provided chart string.

Police Services Requests

Events taking place after normal business hours (after 6pm on weekdays and weekends) will require a Security Patrol Officer (SPO) to be present in Stanley Hall to prevent unauthorized guests from entering lab and hazardous areas. The event coordinator should provide name tags to event attendees, as a way for the SPO to monitor authorized guests at the event.

The UCPD Event Security Assessment form must be completed, signed and emailed to stanley_reservations@berkeley.edu at least 7 days prior to the event. Forms should NOT be sent to UCPD directly. Facilities will instruct the SPO where to be stationed during events in order to prevent unauthorized guests from entering lab areas and hallways.

The cost per SPO is $98 per hour, with a 4 hour minimum.

Food & Drinks

No food or drinks are allowed inside the auditoriums/classrooms.

Events serving food/drinks (including alcohol) will require additional trash, waste or recycle bins to be ordered. The provided chart string will be used by QB3 Facilities to submit a work order for the requested services through Campus Facilities Services.

Payments & Cancellation Fees

Departmental chart string or check is due no later than 14 days following the room/space approval from Stanley Facilities.

All cancellations must be emailed to stanley_reservations@berkeley.edu at least 1 week before the event. Due to the high volume of requests, a cancellation fee of $100 will be applied to the provided chart string.

FY23/24 Rental Fees (Fees are assessed based on event start date)

All rooms are equipped with overhead projectors and screens, with some rooms having additional audiovisual equipment such as camera and built-in speakers. If you need additional technology, ETS provides equipment checkout. Checkout is limited to instructors and intended for instructional use only. Please submit the Instructional Equipment Request form or email classroomav@berkeley.edu if you want to checkout equipment.
