The South Plaza is an outdoor patio with six picnic tables located just outside of the MLC front entrance. This area is conducive to receptions, social gatherings, and department sponsored tailgate events.
The South Plaza is located on south of the building between the Miller Learning Center and the Tate Student Center. It can be accessed by the 1st floor doors on the south side of the building. This area has limited electrical outlets and no data drops.
Want to use the South Plaza for an event?
**The MLC does not provide event resources to exterior spaces. Any events held in this space will need to contact an outside vendor or FMD Support Services to arrange for resources such as tables or chairs.
Things to take into consideration:
- Due to the close proximity of this space to classrooms and research/study space, only low-level background music and speaker amplification may be allowed. Requests for the South Plaza must be submitted at least 30 days prior to your event. Requests submitted after this time period may be declined.
- Due to the ever changing Georgia weather we encourage you to have an alternate location reserved incase of inclement weather for your event date.
- Due to the multiple entrances in this area access to this area cannot be easily blocked off.
The sponsoring organization or department is required to meet with MLC staff no later than 15 days prior to the event to discuss the nature of the event and any technical/electrical requirements. If the sponsoring organization or department fails to hold this meeting, all technical/electrical access will be denied. MLC administration reserves the right to cancel any South Plaza events that have not followed the above procedure.
