Greenhouse Classroom Reservation Policy

Description

How to reserve the Greenhouse classroom-Room capacity of 45.

Purpose

In order to maximize availability of the Greenhouse classroom for meetings, labs, outreach, and rental venue, and facility security, we have developed guidelines for reserving the Greenhouse classroom.

The priority of use for Greenhouse Classroom reservations are on a first come-first served basis, as follows-

  1. Outreach activities-advertised Public open hours and tours
  2. Class meetings, discussions, lectures.
  3. Special Departmental events
  4. UW event venue rental.

Context

The greenhouse has Public open hours on Thursday afternoons and 2 Saturdays a month. The GS staff reserve the classroom for Public hours in advance. Due to the building design, the main entrance to the greenhouse is through the classroom, which is encumbered when we have public open hours.

Procedure

The Greenhouse classroom is reserved through the Biology scheduler

·       Check Greenhouse Classroom availability-select “Availability Weekly”, and click on the header date for a calendar interface to select the day you want to see. If classroom is available, enter your reservation information.

·       The room scheduler will send the reservation request to the Greenhouse Manager for approval.

·       Instructors- to initiate scan card access for your students for courses meeting in the GH classroom and/or greenhouse, at the beginning of the quarter, please send the class roster to frontbio@uw.edu. For other functions, please contact front desk for access.

·       Contact Event Services if you need extra services-recycling bins, chairs, tables, etc. with the date, time, room, and purpose of your request, ideally with a 30-day lead time. 

·         Users of this room must clean the area after use. Disinfectant spray bottles, brooms, dust pans, etc. are on hand in the head house for this purpose. Classroom users are responsible for making sure the Greenhouse facility patio doors and front door are secured after your use.   Please Contact Katie Sadler- sadlergh@uw.edu if you have room or event specific questions.
