Information regarding fees and reservations for these Facilities can be obtained by contacting the Authorized Designee. Please note that many of these Facilities have specific restrictions as to occupancy, hours of use, and other requirements, and may not be available or suitable for every requested use. Use of alcohol at any event at a Publicly Available Facility is subject to Appalachian Policy 106.1 – Alcohol at University Events.


=== Non-Publicly Available Facilities ===
4.3.5 Any participant who consumes alcoholic beverages at such events must be able to produce a valid driver’s license or other photo ID that reflects the person’s age upon request.

Submissions that are made within six (6) days of the anticipated Use will be considered, but there is no guarantee that Use of the Facilities requested will be accommodated if the time, place, or manner of the requested Use is not compatible with the Facility.

:*whether the requested location is suitable for the event or activity;

4.4.3 Open flame fires, including fire pits, are prohibited.
:In making these considerations, the following factors shall also be considered, in addition to any other content-neutral factors that may be relevant to a particular Facility:

:*noise likely to be generated by the proposed event or activity, and the impact, if any, on academic activities or other University activities in the vicinity;
:*impact of the proposed event or activity on traffic;
:*whether the accommodations provided in the requested location are suitable and adequate for the proposed event or activity;
:*whether the proposed event or activity complies with applicable laws, rules, regulations, and policies;

:*whether the proposed event or activity conflicts with any pending exclusive rights contracts of the University.


'''4.3.6 Denial of a Facility Use Request'''

:*the applicant has not completed a reservation request form as expressed under this policy;

:*the request is not submitted within the time frames identified in Section 4.3.3;

All nonaffiliated individuals or groups requesting space for any reason at Appalachian will be required to

Risk Manager


=== Scheduling Priorities ===
4.5.2 Trash containers will be provided throughout campus.
'''4.5.1 General'''
:Generally, Facilities will be reserved on a first come, first serve basis. However, official activities of Appalachian itself have precedence over all extracurricular events and all activities of other users.


'''4.5.2 Scheduling Priority'''
=== Solicitation ===
:Activities of recognized student organizations and groups have scheduling priority over those of other users except the University. Occasions may arise when, in order to accommodate official University activities and functions, an official University activity takes precedence for Use of an already scheduled space. In the event rescheduling is necessary, the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs (or his or her designee) will work with the sponsors or organizers of the displaced activity to find suitable alternative locations and times, and otherwise to provide all assistance that is reasonable under the circumstances.


'''4.5.3 Scheduling Conflicts'''
4.6.1 No sales activities are allowed on the Appalachian State University campus, including any/all tailgating areas, without permission from the appropriate University office, i.e. Athletics and/or Center for Student Involvement and Leadership. (Facility Use Policy, Section 11 – Solicitation and Solicitors, Resource Manual)
:In the event of conflict with multiple or competing individuals or groups desiring to Use the same space at the same time, the University reserves the right to resolve the conflict in a peaceable and orderly manner. While reasonable effort will be made to allow each individual or group to Use the space at their desired time, if the space cannot reasonably accommodate such Use, then the University reserves the right to require one or more individuals or groups to Use a different permissible space or to Use the space at a different time. If multiple individuals or entities register to use the same space at the same time, priority will be granted in the order of registration.


=== Policy Implementation and Compliance ===
4.6.2 Only Appalachian State University Athletics or their designated representatives will be allowed to sell merchandise at athletic events.
'''4.6.1 General'''
:All individuals or groups, as well as all events and activities, using Appalachian Facilities are responsible for complying with all applicable laws, regulations, and Appalachian policies. Failure to adhere to these requirements is a basis for revoking permission to use Facilities and space and may result in disciplinary action.


'''4.6.2 Destruction of Property'''
=== Structures ===
:If any activity or event, in or upon a University Facility, is causing damage or destruction of property, or is imminently threatening to cause such damage or destruction, the University may require the activity or event to be relocated to an alternative space at the University. If it is not possible or appropriate to relocate the activity or event, the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs (or his or her designee) or a member of the Appalachian Police Department may require the activity or event to cease immediately, and the individual(s) or group(s) participating in the activity or event may seek to reschedule it as long as the activity or event complies with all applicable laws and University policies.


'''4.6.3 Refusing to Leave University Facilities During Hours When They Are Regularly Closed'''
4.7.1 No permanent or semi-permanent structures may be constructed or placed for any activity on University grounds except by authority of the Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs or the Vice Chancellor for Student Development (Facility Use Policy, Section 5 – Use of University Grounds and Exterior Facilities, Resource Manual).

'''4.6.5 Use of Amplifying System Prohibited'''
