All approved postings will receive the Residence Life approval stamp, which will include a date that the material is permitted to be posted and the date that it will need to come down. Postings must be removed no later than 48 hours following the scheduled event.
Postings on furniture, such as tables or desks, must be approved by the Building Manager or designee for that facility.
Advertisements not following these guidelines will be removed and discarded, and all advertisements will be removed two weeks from the approved posting date.
