The Union Administrative and Reservation Services office is also found on the sixth floor.
Beyond the offices in the Union, many student services are also offered. Locker rentals for single day, the semester and the year are available on the sixth floor. Space is available for event rental or tabling for an event, and students can purchase tickets for programs at the Walton Arts Center. There is also a lost and found at the Information Desk in the main Union Mall.
Some students and Registered Student Organizations believed they would be charged to use the Student Unions facilities for their gatherings as of the beginning of the 2008 school year. According to members of facilities management for the Union, students will never be charged to meet in the Union. Students are also allowed to hang posters and signs for their events in the Union Mall so that other students will see them as they go through the Union.
"I'm sure out tuition is paying for the use of that building, so I think we should be able to use its space," Buckner said.
Fortunately for students, the space and meeting rooms in the Student Union are free to all students and student organizations. Students needing to borrow media equipment or have a technician on stand by are charged a small fee for the rental.
"It's a great place for on-campus friends to meet up in the evening," Gibbons said.
Information on reservations, services, and events in the Union are available on their Web site, at union.uark.edu.
