Scheduling Activities
In order to facilitate the scheduling of activities and reduce conflicts, please observe the following procedures if you are responsible for your organization’s activities. The fundamental principle to observe when scheduling an activity is to try NOT to schedule an activity that will conflict with those of another organization’s. Activities are listed on the Elentra calendar.
Students should complete an online reservation through 25 Live. Training is available for all registered student organizations. Questions regarding room availability may be sent to Central Reservations Office (CRO) at CROHealthSciences@ecu.edu. This applies to all rooms (including the large and small classrooms, auditorium and dining areas), at all times, (including lunchtime and evening activities).
Funding
Student organizations are eligible to receive support from the Student Government Association at East Carolina University.
