Event Support

Events are a key way Ross engages with students, faculty, and staff, and events are critical for stakeholder interaction, so supporting events is a big part of what ACT does. In 2024 alone, ACT supported over 200 events. While unit staff lead event management, ACT provides hands-on assistance with logistical details, including:

• Reserving rooms or venues
• Arranging travel and accommodations for guests/speakers
• Collaborating with procurement on event contracts
• Working with caterers and other suppliers
• Preparing event materials (e.g., name tags, tent cards, packets, etc.)
• Providing onsite event support (e.g., guest registration, ushering/guiding, etc.)
• Processing payments to suppliers/speakers or reimbursement for guests
