Campus Center Banner Guidelines

The main lobby of the Campus Center is an attractive location for promoting on-campus events. In order to regulate the hanging of banners by the University community, these guidelines have been established to insure that fair and equitable time may be given to all organizations wishing to utilize this method of program promotions.

Approval must be obtained from the Office of Student Involvement & Leadership in Campus Center 130 prior to the hanging of banners in the Campus Center Lobby. Hanging of banner is permitted with the following conditions:

  • Banners may promote University events or organizations ONLY.
  • Banners must prominently indicate the University sponsor of the event.
  • Banners may be hung with STRING from the 2nd floor gallery railings only. (No tape!)
  • Banners must not extend below the edge of the lobby doorways nor cover any emergency exit signs.
  • Banners may not be hung from one side of the lobby to the other.
  • All approved banners must display the Student Involvement & Leadership authorization in a visible area on a bottom corner.
  • Banners may be approved to hang for a maximum of seven consecutive days.
  • Banner sponsors assume the responsibility for the hanging and removal of banners at the expiration of the authorization period.
  • Banners that are not removed by the expiration date will be taken down by the Office of Student Involvement & Leadership staff. Unclaimed banners will be discarded every Friday.
The Office of Student Involvement & Leadership assumes no liability against theft, damage, or loss of any hanging or discarded banners. The Office further reserves the right to re-arrange or temporarily remove a banner to promote a University sponsored activity and/or during an event that utilizes the Campus Center Lobby. The Center lobby location below the Ballroom entrance may only be used Monday through Thursday. The space is reserved for the sponsor of the evening activity in the Ballroom beginning Friday morning.
