SORC

Get to the SORC!

The Student Organization Resource Center (SORC) provides low-cost advertising resources to University of Michigan student organizations and departments.  We can help you get the word out about your student organization or department via Bus Signs, plywood "Diag boards," Banners, Digital Advertising, and other media.

We also provide balloon services for campus events and deliver to campus buildings, residence halls and off-campus housing for students.

A small meeting room, banner making room, and copy/fax machine are also available to use for free or at low cost.  

Bus Signs: Request Space

SORC is now accepting reservation requests for the Fall period, which is September 14, 2017 through January 18, 2018.  The Spring-Summer period, which includes dates from May 8 through September 24, is full as of 8/21/17.

Spring-Summer, Fall, and Winter are three separate booking periods; it is not possible to start a reservation in Winter and continue into Spring/Summer, nor start in the Spring/Summer period and continue into Fall, nor start in Fall and continue into Winter.
