Employer Tabling Policy

Employers can schedule a free tabling session in one of six locations on campus. Table availability is pre-set each semester based on the building and is reserved for employers on a first-come-first-served basis. Employers cannot schedule more than one table per building per semester.

All tabling-session cancellations must be communicated at least 24 business hours before the schedule table. If a tabling session is canceled with less than 24 business hours of notice or the employer no-shows to the reserved tabling session, the employer will be given a warning via email and reminded of the policy, but allowed to keep their remaining tabling reservations. If there is a second offense, all future tabling sessions for the semester will be canceled, and the employer will be banned from tabling for the following semester. Special consideration will be made for extenuating circumstances.
