Practice Room Etiquette
- After practice room schedules are posted, a practice room may be used by any musician, if the room is vacant and not reserved.
- If you do not arrive within 10 minutes of your reserved start time, the room is considered available.
- If you leave a practice room for longer than 10 minutes, even if you leave items in the room, the practice room is considered available.
- PLEASE clean up rooms before you leave; if you have moved equipment around, please return it to where it belongs. If you are using a small ensemble room or a classroom, be sure to arrange chairs and stands as you found them before concluding your practice or rehearsal.
- There are lost and found bins outside CHM 101 and HOM 245 for items left in practice rooms. Please bring keys, IDs, and other valuable items to Barb in CHM 101 or Lisa in HOM 245.
