Rental Policy

Background

91探花(CSUEB), like many Universities, rents facilities to various types of organizations such as profit organizations, non-profits organizations, campus affiliates, and use for campus instructional use. The State of California is not permitted by law (California Constitution, Article 16, Section 6 Public Finance) to gift facilities. Per CSU Executive Order 1000, any costs incurred by the University should be recovered.

Universities rent their facilities for three primary reasons:

  1. to generate revenue to support the university's aging infrastructure;
  2. to actively engage the surrounding community
  3. to showcase campus' programs and amenities.
