In order to streamline and clean up our bulletin boards there is a new posting policy for all campus areas. Each deans office, the libraries, residence life and the center for student involvement all have authorization to approve posters.
If you have people reporting their posters have been removed from bulletin boards please refer them to this policy.
Student Clubs and Organizations will be given the posting policy as well.
We plan to roll this out now and more strictly enforce the policy in the upcoming semester.
