    We are looking at renting out some of our concourse tables for community use. Currently we only allow student orgs and campus departments to use these spaces.

    Hi,

    We do not allow external groups to table, but if they are “sponsored” by a student or campus group, we allow them to. There is no revenue from doing this, but it does limit the vendors that can come to ones that won’t break certain contracts on campus (i.e. Pepsi v Coke, ATT v Verizon, CHASE v PNC v Huntington).?

    The ones that do come in benefit the students, especially first years, since they are related to the services they will need. We have also seen that the limitations prevent our spaces from becoming community corkboards like the ones you see at the entrance of some stores. The appearance is more refined.?

    When we get requests from vendors, we offer them our venue spaces, such as the ballroom or conference rooms, where they can host an event to promote their services. Those follow our normal pricing structures.?

    I hope that helps,

    At Georgia State, we do permit off campus entities to reserve vendor tables on our outdoor plaza.  We have focused their energies on Wednesdays for off campus use so that students know when to look forward to shopping on the plaza.

    Hi Missy, 
    We sell spaces in the lobby of our Student Union to external clients for $25 per day per table (six foot). This has worked well for connecting our students with local vendors, recruiters, and small businesses in our community. I’ve attached our vendor contract for your reference. 
    Hope this helps.
