Reserving Facilities

Cancellation Policy

All offices that offer the use of facilities require a group or department to cancel their reservation if the space will not be used. Space is at a premium on MIT's campus; cancelling a reservation enables other groups to effectively utilize that space.

If a group fails to cancel a reservation or booking for a major CAC facility at least three (3) weeks in advance, the group will be charged a fee equal to all costs associated with setting up and taking-down the setup of the facility and/or be fined the cancellation fee of $200 per booking. Major facilities include Sala de Puerto Rico, Lobdell, Morss Hall, Main Kresge Auditorium, Little Kresge Theater, and Wong Auditorium.

For reservations in all other CAC facilities, if a group fails to cancel a reservation or booking at least 48 hours in advance, the group will be charged a fee equal to all costs associated with setting-up and taking-down the setup of the facility and/or be fined the cancellation fee of $50 per booking.

CAC Rain Policy for departments is:

  • Holds a space as a rain location - Pays 1 hour of hourly rate of space
  • Requires 48-hour notice of decision to use or not to use
  • Pays for whichever space is used
