1.09 Use of Rehearsal Rooms by Students

The goal of these policies is to ensure that the rooms and equipment are kept in good order so that we can concentrate on making music.

Jazz Studies majors (and other students who have been given permission by the chair of Jazz Studies) are welcome to schedule rehearsal time in 262, 263, and 292 with at least 24 hours notice using the College of Music room reservation system. The rehearsal must be scheduled after regular classes and ensemble rehearsals have ended.

Here is a link to ScheduleFM, which is used to request room reservations: https://schedulefm.com/untcom/request/login.cfm.

After 5:00 pm and on weekends, Jazz Studies majors are welcome to use 262, 263, and 292 if the room is available. Students must present their UNT IDs to the Copy Room attendant(s) located diagonally from room 292. The monitor will verify Jazz Studies status using the procedure below, keep the ID, and let student into the room. After the room use, the student will return to the copy room, and will receive the ID back.

Lab West (282) can be used by students when it is not in use for classes, rehearsals, concerts, or other activities. Lab West (282) should remain locked. The only exception is for dress rehearsals scheduled as a part of a degree recital scheduling request.Food and drink are not permitted at any time in Lab West (282), except for musicians on the tile floor area, who may have water.

Drum sets and drum set hardware must be locked in the cabinet at the end of the rehearsal. This also applies to drum set use for scheduled classes and rehearsals under faculty supervision. The only time that the drum set and hardware can be left out is if the next drummer is there and ready to take responsibility for the equipment.

Guitar amps and bass amps must be locked in the cabinet at the end of the rehearsal.

Students may not have access to the amp closet in 262 and should not ask the monitors to open it. Only faculty and TFs who have been issued a key to it may open it.

When you are finished, the rooms must be returned to their default setup so they are ready for the next class use.
