E2CAMPUS EMERGENCY TEXT MESSAGING SYSTEM
E2Campus is a universal notification system that allows designated administrators to send time-sensitive
messages to the mobile phones, email, and/or pagers of their subscribers (students, faculty, staff, radio
stations, TV stations, and others). In the event of an emergency on campus, subscribers can get notified
immediately of the situation, wherever they are geographically. Coppin also uses this service to alert its
students, faculty, and staff about campus closings for inclement weather. You have to enroll in order to
receive the alerts. To enroll, please visit www.coppin.edu/TextAlert.

EVENT SCHEDULING
Student Clubs and Organizations that are interested in sponsoring an event on campus must complete an
Event Request Form at least 30 days prior to the event in question. The form is to be submitted to and
approved by the Office of Student Activities. For all events requesting a room in the J. Millard Tawes
Building, the Director of Student Activities will inform the groups’ advisor of approvals. For all other
locations requested, upon approval the Director of Student Activities will forward the form to the Event
Scheduling Coordinator located in the Dining Hall 2 nd floor for venue approval. The final approval is
based on review of the request by the University’s Event Review Committee.
Student clubs and organizations are not assessed space rental fees; however, the Committee assigns
support staff (the CSU Police Department, Housekeeping, Grounds, etc…) at a cost to the organization.
If fees are assessed an invoice will be mailed to the organization’s president and advisor who are
responsible for signing and returning the invoice and payment to the Coordinator of Events Scheduling.
Invoices must be paid by the requested date or the Office of Student Activities has the right to cancel all
student evens where fees are not paid in full
