Relevant Excerpt

Bring your posters in and we'll check to make sure they meet the approval requirements. If they do, we'll set the date on the stamp one month in the future and you can stamp all your posters. ...

If posters are hung without being stamped, they will be removed. You are not allowed to post any posters on walls, outside of classrooms, or on boards labeled "For Academic Use Only".

...

ALL POSTERS MUST HAVE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION, CLEARLY VISIBLE:

  • Name of sponsoring group
    • GVSU department/organization
    • Registered Student Organization
    • Class Name
    • If not GVSU affiliated, include the name of the business or individual
  • Contact information
    • Include at least one of the following: phone number, email address, website
    • Social media handles do not count as an official form of contact.

POSTERS CANNOT:

  • Have any promotion or information about the sale or use of alcohol. If you are serving non-alcoholic beverages, choose words that are not associated with alcohol (Example: use “Mocktails” instead of “Cocktails”).
  • Have any inappropriate pictures (nudity, sexual content, graphic portrayals).
