Equipment is available on a first-come first-served basis, and the earlier you request, the better. You are required to request equipment at least 1 week in advance of your event. If you miss this deadline, your event can only be approved if an employee is willing to take the shift last-minute. If you or your organization requests equipment late 3 times in a semester, you will be unable to use WSC equipment for the remainder of the term. Our employees deserve ample notice to plan their shifts. 

You must provide a car to transport the equipment from the WSC shed in back of the UOC (190 High Street) to the event venue. You and/or a co-organizer must be available and sober to drive equipment at the beginning and end of the event. Events at 200 High, the UOC, and adjacent senior houses are exempt from this policy. Equipment may never be left unattended overnight.

The WSC welcomes all kinds of events happening all around Wesleyan. As long as you follow our policies, we have equipment and people available, and the managers approve the event, we will work it.

Examples of events that have been approved in the past:

• Events sponsored by the WSA or Student Involvement

• Events held at program houses or ResLife spaces
