39. Soliciting on Campus (Revised 1991)

39.1 The term "solicit" is defined as advertising, the taking of orders, sales, donations, proselytizing, campaigning (political or other), and collection and distribution of literature. Any solicitation on campus must have the approval of the Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs & Auxiliary Services, whether such solicitation is by an officially recognized student organization, university organization, a governmental agency or other. Door-to-door solicitation by outside organizations or companies, however, is prohibited in the residence halls. Only those who have been issued a concessions letter are permitted to solicit or sell on campus property.

39.2 All charity and welfare drives must be sponsored by an officially recognized student organization, and are subject to the same guidelines as other solicitations on campus. Student organization charity fund drives also should be registered at the Student Activities Office.

39.3 Only recognized campus organizations, students, faculty members and staff are permitted to use campus facilities including computing resources for publicity and advertising. Non-University affiliated vendors may advertise through use of the Nautilus or U.S. Mail. Guidelines regulating campus advertising and publicity may be obtained in the Student Activities Office.
