Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook: Printed Media Distribution and Advertising

Relevant Excerpt

The following policy applies to all areas of campus and University facilities and supplements any policy pertaining to specific areas of campus:

Prior approval must be obtained from the Associate Vice President for Business Services or their designee before any restaurant, bar, lounge, or similar establishment places on campus any advertisements in the form of posters, handbills, and distribution of leaflets or other printed media. Such advertising is prohibited without prior approval.

1. Acceptable Conditions for Seeking Approval
   1. When the advertisement is in connection with an approved on-campus activity. For example, if such an establishment sponsors or underwrites a University or student organization on-campus activity, the AVBS may approve the use of posters, distribution of leaflets or other advertising publicizing an off-campus event during said on-campus activity.
   2. For an off-campus event at a restaurant, bar, lounge or similar establishment, such as a homecoming dance, which is sponsored and held by the University or student organization.
   3. For an off-campus event sponsored in cooperation with a student organization if the student organization and said establishment comply with the University solicitation policy, including obtaining approval of such solicitation from the Executive Director of the Student Center Complex, entering into a contract with the University regarding the solicitation and obtaining required insurance.
