THE BELOW INFORMATION IS FOR ORGS
RECRUITING AT MSC OPEN HOUSE

Howdy!!

It’s Jamie, I’m back to spread some good news to all you chief student leaders, primary contacts and student organization advisors. I’m here to provide an update on locations and logistics for the big day.

But before we get to the directory and map let’s chat a little bit about how to get the most out of recruiting at MSC Open House.

We want to start with a big THANK YOU for registering for MSC OPEN HOUSE! We are so glad to help connect you to Aggies! Our team has been working hard for months to create a fun, interactive, SAFE event and we need your help to make it all happen!

Please make sure to read this ENTIRE email as it’s your responsibility to pass this information to your members.

Please see the attached graphic you can share with your followers! We want you to post and promote your location on your own social media accounts. Please see the attached graphic you can share with your followers!

We still HIGHLY ENCOURAGE you and your members wear masks. This is not required, but definitely the best practice to keep you and others safe. With safety in mind, we will be very strict about MSC Open House rules. This means only TWO members at your table at any given time. This includes shift changes. Remember, three violations of MSC Open House rules and you’ll be asked to leave the event with your org being barred from the next two MSC Open House events.

Flyers will be allowed at this year’s event. Please be mindful and respectful to those who do not want to take a flyer. Also, please do not block hallways or impede the flow of traffic. This includes stair landings. Do not gather or congregate around the tops or bottoms of stair landings. Please be sure to keep in motion as this is due to Texas State Fire Code.

Check-in will begin at 10:45 a.m. Please see below on where to check-in at:

  • All first floor (including 12th Man Hall and Copy Corner Hallway), 2nd Floor Main Hallway  tables will check-in at the Information Desk in 12th Man Hall
  • Bethancourt Ballroom (including Bethancourt Hallway), MSC 2400 (Gates Ballroom) and MSC 2406 tables will check-in at the Info Table/Map Station located in the Respect Lounge (across from the convenient store)
  • DO NOT GO DIRECTLY TO YOUR TABLE – any organization who goes to their table without checking first will forfeit their table.
  • Check-in ends at 12:45 – if your organization has not checked in by this time, your org will forfeit their table

TAKE ME TO THE DIRECTORY AND MAPS!

A few things to remember about MSC Open House:

  • TABLES WILL BE PROVIDED – your organization does not have to bring one.
  • Your organization must check in by 12:45 pm. Failure to check-in or going directly to your table without checking in will result in forfeiting your table without refund.
  • Only 1 organization per table; i.e. no sharing tables.
  • You will not be allowed to hang materials on MSC walls. Plan for another method to display your materials.
  • Due to fire code violations, tables are not allowed to have chairs unless they have a medical or ADA compliant reason. Please do not move any property of the Memorial Student Center, including furniture, signage, etc.
  • No balloons are allowed inside the building.
  • Electrical outlets will not be available at any table. DO NOT bring extension cords as they cause tripping hazards. If you bring one, this will count as a violation.
  • Do not place any items in front of your table as this is also a tripping hazard. If you place an item in front of your table, this will count as a violation.
  • Please ensure your violation sheet is easily visible. If we cannot see your violation, this will result in an automatic violation.
  • Parking will be available in both Gene Stallings Garage and University Center Garage
    • There will be a $5 fee for parking in Gene Stallings Garage
    • UCG will be normal pay-by-the-hour rates
