Yes, a club can rent a locker, but the rental agreement must be completed by one student. This rental does not count against the one personal locker that a student is allowed.

At the beginning of Fall term, we limit lockers to one per student. At other times during the year, additional lockers may be rented based on availability.

Available lockers are locked with a gold padlock that belongs to Facilities. These locks have a colored dot painted on top.

What happens if I forget my locker combination?
If you are locked out because you lost your key or forgot your combination, please put in a
service request to have the lock cut. You will need to provide a new lock.
