Kirby Student Center is funded by Student Services Fees and provides resources to all students. While tabling in the Kirby Commons is available to student organizations and UMD departments, we also consider tabling requests by UMD students for a class project. All class projects will be verified with faculty/instructor. Please see the following guidelines that apply.
Guidelines for Class Project Tabling
Limit to 2 tabling events per student per class project
Complete a reservation request through Mazevo. The event name should be the name of the class project. The tabling diagram is here. (Instructors cannot book on behalf of a student)
A reservation consists of one full day during tabling hours. Tables are available Monday through Friday between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. There is no tabling over academic breaks.
Reservations for tabling must be submitted 1 week in advance to allow time for Kirby Student Center to contact the professor/instructor of the class to verify the project before the reservation can be approved.
If the class project tabling event includes working with an external party, the student working on the class project must be present.
No reservation is considered approved until it is confirmed online by Kirby Student Center staff. The person reserving the table will receive a confirmation email when the reservation is approved.
A table reservation includes one 6-foot strip table with two chairs.
Merchandise and service sales, fundraisers, gambling, raffles and drawings are all prohibited from class project tabling.
Using your Table
A sign identifying the project and the class it is affiliated with is required (8.5x11” or larger).
UMD student who made the reservation must be present at the table at all times
Tables should not be rearranged
All table personnel must stay behind the table at all times and shall not verbally or physically impede traffic flow.
Standing out in the hallway to hand out flyers or other literature or solicit customers is not permitted.
The reserving party is responsible for all activity at their table.
A courteous and professional attitude is to be maintained at all times.
There shall be no aggressive sales/communication techniques used. Noise level, including video and music, should be kept to a respectful level.
The student is responsible for cleaning up the contents of the table by 3:00 p.m. the day of the reservation. This includes any accompanying signs or posters on pillars etc.
No outside sales are allowed.
A schedule of daily table reservations is posted in the Kirby Commons. Please use the table assigned to your group.
If the University closes due to weather or other event, tabling will also be canceled for that day.
It is a privilege to have a table space, not a right. Kirby Student Center staff reserve the right to ask a group to leave the tabling area if the above guidelines are not being followed.
