Implementation Guidelines for Georgetown University's Policy on Speech and Expression

Relevant Excerpt

As a University dedicated to free and open inquiry, deliberation and debate, Georgetown welcomes speech and expressive activity, in many forms, throughout its campuses. Georgetown has also identified certain “public squares,” which are well suited to expressive activity and where certain types of expressive activity (e.g., flyering, tabling and physical structures) may take place in keeping with these and campus-specific guidelines.  

These areas are available, without prior arrangement, for University community members between 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. for the purpose of exchanging ideas.

An individual, organization, or department hosting an event is responsible for all costs associated with the event, including security if such is deemed necessary by the University administration). No University subsidy will be available unless by prior arrangement. However, security costs shall not be construed as a disincentive to host an event of a controversial nature, so student groups encountering budget limitations should reach out to the Center for Student Engagement or other relevant University office as early as possible to plan for event costs accordingly. In rare cases, groups may request a waiver of security costs.
