Subject: Signs on campus
Authorities:
Purpose:
It is the purpose of Pine Technical College to provide a method for campus units
and organizations to post signs on campus to communicate with staff and students
while at the same time striking a balance between that form of communications
and campus maintenance and appearance. Posting or taping of signs and flyers
around campus also creates additional work for the maintenance/custodial staff
and may detract from the image of the college if such activity is not regulated.
Policy:
It is the policy of Pine Technical College to provide places on campus for the
posting of signs promoting events and issues of importance to students and staff
and to restrict the posting of signs to those places provided.
Procedure:
PTC will provide bulletin boards at appropriate places on campus for the posting
of flyers and signs by students, staff and the public.
- One bulletin board in the Student Lounge area will be provided for the sole use
of the Student Senate of PTC.
- One bulletin board in the main hall will be used for college announcements
- One bulletin board at top of ramp will be used for college announcements
- One bulletin board near classrooms 50, 51, 52, and 53 will be used for college
announcements
- Small bulletin boards outside classrooms may be used for college announcements;
however, classroom announcements are given priority
- Other bulletin boards may be designated as restricted by the Leadership Team
after review and approval of a written request from a campus group or unit.
- Other hallway displays may also be provided from time to time for special
purposes, including registration or other similar events.
- Notices of events or other items of interest may also be submitted to Academic
Affairs for inclusion on the overhead monitors provided around campus. Those
wishing to submit must contact Academic Affairs for the format and instructions.
Signs and flyers may not be posted on or taped to:
- any part of the building, except the above specified areas unless approved by
the Marketing Director.
- During Student Government elections, candidates may post signs around campus in
general as a yearly exception to this policy, if considered appropriate by
College staff.
- Continuing Education may maintain a pedestal-mounted sign containing
instructions for CE/CT students as long as the sign does not interfere with
traffic.
- Exceptions to these restrictions may be granted upon prior written request to
the Leadership Team.
Any sign or flyer intended to remain for an extended period of time must be
submitted to Marketing for approval and to insure professionalism.
Signs and flyers must have a posted date and a removal date printed on them.
Responsibilities:
College staff is authorized to remove any signs or flyers not in compliance with
this policy.
Academic Affairs is responsible for coordinated usage of the overhead monitors.
Dissemination:
Regular dissemination: policy manual, intranet, email.
