Bulletin Board Policy

Public Postings Policy

All on-campus posters must include contact information, a name (first name, university issued email or department), and an expiration date (or date of event). Posters may only be placed inside buildings and in places designated for such posters. Posters which announce activities to be held at the University or of special interest to the university community shall be posted. Limited space will be allocated for off-campus advertisements and the designated areas identified. Posters are limited in size to 14" x 22" before needed additional approval by Activities Office. Posting and removal are the responsibility of the contact person or department.

On-campus posters with appropriate contact info may be posted on the following bulletin board areas without prior approval. They must be limited to one per bulletin board and must be taken down within two weeks of posting or within 2 days of the event ending. Student Housing and the REC control their own bulletin boards. Postings may be left in the Activities office to be delivered to those sites and they will be posted at the discretion of the management. The hanging of banners must be site approved by St Activities before placement. Chalking may be used outside if the rain can wash away the area. Chalkers must register with the St Activities office in lieu of chalking contact information. Student Election materials must follow the USUAS-JC guidelines and be in compliance with this policy.

Off campus posters must get stamped approval from the St Activities Office, 106 Mourant. This date stamp must be present on all posters to remain on Public area bulletin boards. Political and campaign posters are not allowed unless event specific.

Staples and thumbtacks should not be used, pushpins or tape only. No self adhesive stickers, labels or signs are allowed. Unauthorized locations include exterior walls, building entries, outside columns, walls along stairs, glass entry and exit doors, fences, trash cans or bathroom stalls, without prior approval. There can be no unofficial usage of the university logo in advertising. There can be no usage of alcohol logos or mastheads.

Violations of the poster policy will result in the posters being removed and discarded. It would be polite to use the contact information and inform the owners as to why it is being removed. Posters that abide by the policy should not be written on, removed, destroyed, made unreadable. If it is suspected that this has happened to a poster, the UAS Judicial Officer should be contacted. If you have a problem with the content you should use the contact information to inform the owner of the poster your concerns. Student Activities will hire a bulletin board monitor and be checking for compliance twice weekly.
