The University of Texas at Tyler facilities listed in the UT Tyler Handbook of Operating Procedures  5.14 Special Use Facilities have been designated by the President as “Special Use Facilities” and can be used for public use.

Priority to the reservation and use of the Special Use Facilities shall be given to activities that are in furtherance of, and related to, the educational, cultural, recreational, and athletic programs of the institutions. As a lower priority, Special Use Facilities may under some circumstances be reserved and used by non-university individuals, groups, associations, or corporations, without necessity of joint sponsorship by UT Tyler.

University Center / Main Campus Academic Rooms
The University Center and academic space are not considered Special Use Facilities and, therefore, are only available to recognized student organizations and university departments to use for meetings, events, and university business.
