How to Reserve Space

To reserve space please come to the Student Life and Leadership Programs Office, located on the second floor of the New University Union (UU 2011). Campus-affiliated organizations may post banners in designated locations on the exterior of university buildings provided that the organization has reserved the location. Banners posted on university buildings may be posted for a maximum of two weeks and only to advertise events for which university approval has been obtained.

Campus-affiliated organizations may reserve a maximum of three spaces per week. Each organization is allowed a maximum of two weeks per quarter for displaying their banners. The sponsoring organization is responsible for placing and removing banners, and for cleaning up any tape or twine used to affix the banner to the building.

Campus-affiliated organizations must reserve space through the University Union in order to hang banners along any of the University Union railings. Consult the University Union banner hanging policy for details.
