- - Posters remain up for a maximum of 2 weeks - no exceptions
- - Posters may not be larger than 11"x17"

- - No personal ads - (i.e. sublets, items for sale, private companies, entrepreneurs, etc...)
- - Off campus events are exceptions and approval is determined on the benefit to students (i.e. job fair)
