Fronting Policy

• Fronting occurs when an on-campus organization is used to represent primarily the interests of an off-campus group or university department. Campus Recreation does not recognize co-sponsorship between non-University groups and student organizations or campus departments when the co-sponsorship seeks to reduce applicable costs for facilities or services. Student organizations or university departments should not use their privileges for access to Campus Recreation spaces or equipment inappropriately to “front” for another organization in order to avoid or reduce rental rates. Student organizations and university departments can only reserve space for events which they directly sponsor, are integrally involved in, and will be present at the event. Users that misrepresent an event or affiliation in order to avoid fees and charges will be charged appropriately, may incur additional charges, and may have reservation privileges suspended.
• Hiding or concealing the identity of the true client due to non-eligibility for use of facilities, monetary exemptions, or the policies and mission of The University of South Florida St. Petersburg and the Department of Campus Recreation is not permitted. Fronted events provide an unfair advantage to an otherwise controlled process and creates an inability to manage the established method for space reservations and billing.
• Student Organizations and University Departments hosting events are not permitted to utilize space without a charge if a registration fee, entry fee, or any revenue is collected at the event. In this case, university organizations will be subject to the University Sponsored rate.
• Any event will be considered as being “fronted” for an external source if:
  • The space is being requested or has been confirmed for an internal user but the payment is submitted or received from and external source. This includes local businesses, national branch of the requesting organization, any corporation, private individual, etc.
  • Set-up instructions for an internal reservation or request are received from an external source.
  • An internal request is placed solely for the gain of an external user to receive internal rates. The event does not reflect the mission, service, or programmatic goals of the requesting organization/department.
  • Campus Recreation staff will make the determination as to fronting by considering the nature of the event, past experience with respect to similar events, type, and the nature of attendees.

Reservation Application

To cancel an event, organizations and departments must notify Campus Recreation at least twenty-four hours prior to the scheduled event.

If a group does not cancel an event appropriately, any estimated direct costs will be sent to the group as an invoice and the organization/department will not be allowed to reserve space for the remainder of the specified term or to the discretion of Campus Recreation.

Campus Recreation accepts reservation application via our Facility and Equipment Request Form.
