This policy provides general guidelines for signage in Jabs Hall .

The purpose is to:

  1. Prevent damage to any surface and reduce cleanup for custodians, staff and students.
  2. Fairly promote events occurring in and related to Jabs.
  3. Maintain a professional and neat look throughout the building.

Any questions or clarifications can be directed to:

Your Student Organization’s Faculty Advisor, or

Materials may be displayed in Jabs Hall that promote college or MSU events that are for students, faculty or staff as long as the following guidelines are used.

Who:

  • Outside venues, events, and services are only allowed to be posted on the community boards across from the 1st floor water fountains and the 2nd floor restrooms. Non-Jabs related MSU posters can be posted to the general info boards, one on each floor near or across from the bathrooms (which includes the two community boards)

Bulletin Boards:

  • There are bulletin (“cork”) boards next to faculty offices on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th floors, that are for faculty and college use. Unauthorized materials posted on these boards may be removed. Please NO staples!

Glass Walls:

  • We are currently not allowed to have promotional messaging and posters up on our glass walls.

Posters:

  • Posters should be no larger than 11”x17”. Student groups may get special permission for larger signage (i.e. multi-day events, large events in coordination with the college, etc.) You may pin them to corkboards (ask permission from the faculty if you want to post on their private boards). Please NO staples!!!
  • Do not litter the building with handouts and posters. Post in appropriate, approved areas only.
  • You may not hang posters on the glass! Please contact Chloe Stermitz if you are interested in using a rolling whiteboard to promote an upcoming event.
  • Please remove your posters post event or within 2 weeks of distributing.

Other surfaces:

  • You will see some communications from the Student Services or Bracken Center near the water fountains, on restroom doors and other places. This DOES NOT mean it is ok for student organizations or others to hang posters there. Your poster will be removed if found in these locations. This is ONLY for Student Services, the Dean’s Office, and the Bracken Center.
  • DO NOT HANG POSTERS:
    • On the stairwells
    • Entryways
    • Bathroom Stalls
    • Columns
    • Other walls or surfaces

MSU Elections:

Students running for ASMSU positions are welcome to respectfully advertise/campaign within Jabs Hall. Non-student body government campaign posters are prohibited.
