To better protect our campus and Omaha communities and preserve in-person teaching, working, and learning, please review UNO's most recent campus adjustments.

Meetings and Events (Gatherings)

  • Effective Monday, January 10, 2022, UNO-sponsored gatherings of 25 or more individuals will not be approved. At this time, community-sponsored events are excluded from this restriction.
  • UNO-sponsored events already confirmed to take place on campus, and in the CEC, with more than 25 people – regardless of approval status – are no longer considered approved. Please contact unocecreservations@unomaha.edu to reschedule, decrease event capacity, or change your event to a virtual format.
  • Please continue to send all reservation requests (both UNO and community) through the CEC's online request form.

Food at Meetings and Events

  • Until further notice, food is not allowed at events of any size in the CEC.

Please continue to review UNO's Guidance for Events and Gatherings (including Food).
