Bulletin Board Allocations

The ASA administers the bulletin board space in the infinite corridor (and adjoining areas) that are designated for student group use by the Campus Activities Complex. Some items of note:

• Bulletin board space is re-allocated every other year.
• You are never guaranteed to keep your space during a re-allocation.
• Groups can lose their space at any time during the school year if it is not being used properly.

Incoming Allocations

The following allocations have been made to be effective starting March 7, 2011:

• Listing of assignments
• Charts of board divisions (with assignments shown)
• Maps of board locations

Timeline: Groups whose bulletin board space has changed (size or location) or that no longer have space have until next Friday, March 4 to remove their materials. ASA will take remaining contents of these boards down over the following weekend and contact groups about picking up the materials. The new allocations will take effect the following Monday, March 7, at which point groups should use their new space.

A listing of bulletin board statuses/warnings is posted here. Groups marked in red have until Tuesday 4/5 to put up materials or their board will be reallocated.

Outgoing Allocations

As of September 2010, the bulletin boards have been reassigned after the remodeling along the Infinite. The current assignemnts are:

• Bulletin Board assignments
• Maps of Board Locations and Board Divisions

Group Responsibilities

ASA has put together a document detailing the responsibilities of being allocated a bulletin board. Those responsibilities are outlined here:

• Keep your board filled - if it is not in a covered case, you must use background paper or large poster(s) to cover the entire space.
• Include your group name and contact information
• Include information about your group’s activities or issues
• Keep your board updated
• Maintain the condition of your poster materials
• Remove other posters from your space. Facilities has been instructed not to deposter private boards even if they look like they have public postering on them. You must remove and save the offending posters and then notify the ASA Executive Board
• Notify the ASA Executive Board of any vandalism
• Get permission from the ASA Executive Board if you intend to permanently modify your space (e.g. putting up display cases or plexiglas) or if you want to put up anything that will protude from your board more than paper and poster boards.
