Dear Art and Design Cheqroom Users,

 

We will be offering contactless pickup of equipment for the Fall Semester in the CSB Lobby on the following dates. Please note that all visits require a reservation and confirmation from Art and Design Staff as well as approval from our Mason Gross Facilities Director. These are not drop in-hours and there will be no equipment loans without a reservation.

If you are in a Media, Design or Photo course, or if you are a thesis or grad student, you should have received your invite.  If you need access to Cheqroom please contact Damian Catera at catera@mgsa.rutgers.edu . 

 

All reservations must be confirmed 2 business days in advance. This is a complex, multilayered process. It is strongly encouraged for students to start the reservation process 1 week before your intended appointment.
