As a community partner and neighbor, Purdue
University Calumet will make its facilities available for civic and community
purposes when the use supports the university community service mission and
when the facilities are not otherwise in use for university educational
purposes. At the university’s discretion,
and where it is not in conflict with the university’s mission, designated
facilities may be available for a fee for events that do not meet the community
service criteria.
Requests for the use of Purdue University Calumet
facilities by non-university groups are to be directed to the Office of Facilities
Services. That office shall then

There will be no rental charge for the use of facilities for events
that meet the above listed criteria.
However, groups will be charged, in accordance with published rates, for

Facilities Services will then arrange for a letter of agreement between
the non-university group and the university through the Office of the Business
Services and Comptroller.
If the Office of Facilities Services determines that
the event does not meet the guidelines for a community service event, the
requesting group will be referred to the Vice Chancellor for Administrative
Services, and disposition will be determined in accordance with Executive
Memorandum No. B-47. In either case,
only those requests, which require unique university facilities and/or conform
to the university’s community service mission, will be approved.
