Social
Policies and Regulations: Posting of Signs
"To
enhance our community, we accept responsibility for its social well-being.
We commit ourselves to treat with respect those with whom we differ,
to recognize the rights held by others, and resolve conflicts. Expressions
of prejudgment and prejudice are contrary to this mutual respect
and prevent the fostering of community." --Kalamazoo College Honor
System
- All
posted signs must be stamped by the Office of Student Development.
-
Each of us must take responsibility for our oral and written
communication. Therefore, all posted signs must bear the signature
of an individual, College office or College organization.
- All
posted signs must include the date of posting and will be removed
one week after the posting date or immediately following the
announced event.
- The
Honor System also calls upon us to protect our physical environment.
Therefore, signs may be posted only on bulletin boards, tack
boards, specifically designated wall space, office doors, and
residence hall doors. Signs will be removed from all other locations.
- Signs
from individuals or organizations outside the College must be
reviewed and stamped in the Office of Student Development.
- Messages
written on campus buildings with chalk, paint, pen, pencil,
crayon, etc. or on any College property with indelible substances
will be treated as vandalism and subject to appropriate College
disciplinary procedures or referral for criminal proceedings.
- Items
posted in residence halls must adhere to the above guidelines,
and may only be posted on approved general posting bulletin
boards located near the entrance doors in the residence halls.
Items posted in all other locations within or outside of residence
halls, including but not limited to windows, hallways, stairwells,
and doors, will be removed and recycled.
- Posting
for student room doors in residence halls are also subject to
the above guidelines.
Signs
which violate any of these regulations will be removed.
Complaints about the content of signs should be directed to the
individuals or organizations identified on the sign. If this process
cannot resolve the concern, a complaint may be filed through the
regular judicial process.
