The Sanford School of Public Policy has a limited number of rooms available for use by the Duke community, and by those who serve the Duke community. We prioritize space for public policy faculty, staff and students, as well as our affiliated research centers and programs. For non-Sanford and non-Duke requestors, space rental fees will apply.

The Sanford School reserves the right to refuse the rental or use of the space, or if overriding necessity dictates, to bump confirmed reservations to accommodate an event of major importance to the school. 

For more information and to discuss requests, please email sanfordevents@duke.edu
