Guidelines for Use

Eligibility

Rooms are for faculty, staff, and departmental use– not for students to hold their meetings or for faculty to teach a class. Students are allowed in a TLC Space as long as the meeting is facilitated by a faculty member. Please email tl.commons@unlv.edu if you have any questions.

Room Access

Your Rebelcard unlocks and locks BEH-235 and BEH-240. When you are using BEH-240 (multi-use room), you will need room access. Please lock the door when your meeting is over.

If you would like card reader access for your meeting, please email tl.commons@unlv.edu with the last 6 digits on the back of your RebelCard (under the black bar).

Housekeeping

When you use TLC spaces, we ask that you leave rooms as you found them. This includes returning tables and chairs back and wiping down tables, lecterns/keyboard/mouse, and whiteboards. Cleaning supplies are located in the back of BEH-235 and BEH-240.. 

Put trash and recyclables in the proper bins and pick up any debris left on the floor. If there is a lot of debris and other events are scheduled after yours, ask for the vacuum cleaner. If your event is the last one for the day, Custodial Services will vacuum. 

Food

Food is allowed in all of the rooms. You can use tables in BEH-240, or ask to use tables located in the storage room (two 6' tables and one 4' table). Please provide your own linens, and tables should be returned to storage or wherever you got your tables from. We also have a regular size refrigerator in the storage room and a smaller refrigerator in the lounge, as well as an ice maker.

Reserve a Space

These spaces are available to reserve through Google Calendar under the “add rooms or location” section of the Event creator.

  1. From your Google calendar, create the event and select “More options.”
  2. Insert the date, time, any other information, and click the “Room” tab which is located next to the “Guest” tab.
  3. Select which space(s) you would like to reserve.

Please note the following:

  • If the room number does not show or is crossed out, the room is not available.
  • Space reservations may require approval or rescheduling. We will reach out directly to you if this is the case.
  • Do not put anything in the location field. This will prevent your event from appearing on the outside digital signage. 

If you need any assistance reserving a space, please email tl.commons@unlv.edu.
