EEEC and Lindley Hall Poster & Flyer Policy

This policy is for public/general use spaces (hallways and classrooms) and does not pertain to private offices or labs. 

In Lindley, some bulletin boards are for specific things (clubs, graduate students, dept. news) so be aware of that. There are plenty of non-specific bulletin boards for sharing news and events.

Research posters: These can be hung in Lindley, not in Ritchie or Slawson unless they are in digital form.  There aren’t bulletin boards for these, but we have a method for hanging them in the blank wall spaces.  If a faculty member is interested in hanging a student’s research poster, reach out to Ramia.  Please remove the research poster by July of the new academic year.  We want to show off the research we’re doing, but we should rotate the posters on a yearly basis. 

In Ritchie and Slawson, we only use digital content.  If it’s ‘landscape’ instead of ‘portrait’ you can contact Ramia directly and she'll get it up on the digital displays (portrait formatted signs cannot go on the displays).   Fally can help create digital content for departmental events, not personal/club events.  Flyers should never be taped to the walls; these flyers will be taken down and recycled, not relocated. 

If you have a meeting in Slawson 298/198, we know it’s helpful to hang directional signs pointing to the end of Slawson, but try to communicate locations to your visitors instead of hanging signs.  If you MUST hang signs pointing people in a direction, use painters tape.  Please remove the signs as soon as you can; nothing like having directional signs up for a week after an event. 

As far as taking items off a bulletin board, the general rule is don’t touch what isn’t yours. The only time anyone is authorized to remove a flyer or content is if they put it up to begin with, or it’s outdated (past colloquium signs etc.).   Staff will relocate any flyers that have been posted on a topic specific board to a non-specific board. 

Lastly, if you have a KU related event, and you want to use KU branding for it, please reference the branding website.
