CONFERENCE ROOM RESERVATIONS

Each year, the Franke Institute for the Humanities hosts approximately seventy-five conferences, lectures, workshops, and other events. Faculty, staff, and graduate students in the Arts & Humanities Division and in the humanistic social sciences may reserve the Franke conference room if the event pertains to interdisciplinary research and/or teaching and is open to the public. The Franke conference room is ordinarily available only for events that are sponsored, either in whole or in part, by the Franke Institute; other events involving the AHD can sometimes be accommodated, based on availability. In addition to the conference room, the Franke lounge and kitchen are available to event organizers.
