Hello Student:
Due to a high number of posting policy violations across campus, we wanted to take a moment to provide all student organization members a copy of the posting policy. Sanctions on student organizations and their members who violate the posting policy vary. If facilities must remove chalk or patch paint, student organizations will be charged for the associated costs. Repeated violations will result in loss of privileges to host programs or events, and/or derecognition.
