About this file

This Excel file is a detailed meeting space requirements document for the 2025 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) Conference, specifying comprehensive spatial and technical needs across multiple event days. The document outlines precise requirements for various conference spaces, including a pre-conference setup with a storage room, 24-hour staff office, registration area, plenary session space, VIP and Secretary hold rooms, five distinct breakout rooms, exhibition space, and an Innovation Alley. Technical specifications for the plenary session are extensive, requiring dual projection packages, ASL interpretation, StreamText CART captions, multiple cameras, audio mixers, wireless microphones, stage lighting, and specific production equipment.

The conference is structured over three days with specific daily configurations, featuring registration times ranging from 4-8 p.m., sound checks beginning at 6 a.m., and plated luncheons served between 11:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. Additional event spaces include a Federal Agency Meet & Greet from 3-6 p.m. on the first day and an exhibition space that remains consistent throughout the conference. The event requires flexible room setups, including round tables, theater-style seating, and specialized technical configurations to accommodate up to 550 participants across various session types, with specific attention to accessibility and technological support for presentations and interactions.

Comment:

@Mccane, Elizabeth I added the Career Fair to day 1 Monday with Direct Hire rooms, exhibition set up and then after Career Fair ends the set up of breakout rooms ending on Thursday.

We want the breakouts all day on Thursday so we have the flexibility to add or remove.

Added a Presidents and Chancellors Room separate from the Breakout rooms.

Added the storage and staff room to Friday so we aren't rushed to find somewhere to store our stuff Thursday night.
