Relevant Excerpt

Residents have the right to approach anyone who displays a decoration that they believe to be offensive or obscene in order to discuss their concerns and ask for its removal. For example, posters of nude individuals and harassing or intimidating visual materials are generally considered inappropriate.

Check with Residence Life staff if you have questions about what may or may not be appropriate. Displays that raise a legitimate safety concern or violate university policies may not be hung on residential facility doors or in general view of the public. Residence Life staff will determine if items need to be removed.
