Tabling |
What is tabling? Tabling is a great way to promote your org. It can help you raise awareness and garner support for an issue, advertise for events, and recruit new members. Looking for materials? Check out this pamphlet from Design Works. |

Involvement Fairs |
Registered student organizations will have the opportunity to table at Involvement Fairs throughout the semester free of charge.
|
|
Residence Halls |
Registered organizations are allowed to table inside of Residence Halls with the permission from Community Director for that hall. The organization would need to double-check with the Community Director to see if the space can provide a table, if not they must bring their own. If the organization would like to table outside of the Residence Hall they would need to submit a Solicitation Permit with Conference and Event Services (Union Scheduling) and bring their own table. The Union will not provide tables for organizations outside of the Union tabling. |

Union |
Registered organizations can sign up to table around or inside the Union using this site: https://studentaffairs.unt.edu/plan-an-event/student-organization |
