Event Support Services

Event Support Service Fees

Once your event form has been reviewed and given preliminary approval status by the Office of Events Management, it will be formally presented to the CCNY Events Screening Committee.

In order to ensure the safety and sanitation of campus events the Events Screening Committee may assign event support staffing. Event support includes Public Safety representatives such as Campus Security Assistants (CSA) and Campus Peace Officers (CPO) as well as Physical Plant Services representatives, which includes custodians, laborers, and electricians.

Fees associated with an event are assessed by the CCNY Events Screening Committee.
