Catering for Student Organizations

Aramark provides a student catering guide which has many inexpensive options for student organizations to use when planning events.

Requesting President Drinan at an Event

If you would like President Drinan to attend your event, an executive board member of your organization must fill out the Event Sheet for the president and submit it to the director of Student Leadership and Activities no later than 14 business days prior to the event. 

Sell Event Tickets in the Box Office

Student Organizations may sell their tickets or other items from the Student Box Office. Please provide the Office of Student Leadership and Activities with physical tickets for the event, sign-up sheets, and any particular instructions for how the items should be sold (e.g. to Simmons students only). If you have any questions, please e-mail studentactivities@simmons.edu or call x2423.

Karaoke Machine and Popcorn Machine

Student Organizations are welcome to borrow the Office's Karaoke Machine or Popcorn Machine for their events.   Organizations are responsible for reserving these items in advance, and making any arrangements to have the items moved to and from the event location.   Requests for moving can be made using the College's Work Order system. To do this, place a work order by calling  x1000 or e-mail callcenter@simmons.edu.  Please make sure to request that the machines are moved the day before or day of an event and returned the day following the event.

Balloons

Organizations can use the Helium tank and balloons, but are limited to a total of 200 balloons per academic year, in order to ensure fair and equitable uses of the resources among all student organizations.  The Office of Student Leadership and Activities has a supply of balloons and ribbon which includes many different colors. However, if you are looking for a specific color, we encourage you to check with the Office to ensure that we have that color in stock.

Bake Sales/Fundraisers

Student Organizations may reserve the "S-table" (the red table outside of the Fens) for fundraisers by asking for the "bake sale book" in the Office of Student Leadership and Activities. Organizations may reserve the S-table for fundraisers only once per semester. Only one organization per day may do a fundraiser such as a bake sale. If you have any questions about this, please contact studentactivities@simmons.edu or call x2423.

Vendor Program

The Office of Student Leadership and Activities coordinates the daily vendors who display their wares outside of the Fens. Vendors pay a fee for vending which serves as a fundraiser for our student organizations. Student organizations can stop by the Office of Student Leadership and Activities to learn about applying for vendor fee funds.
