Law School Posting Policy

Posting at the Law School, whether indoors or outdoors, is regulated by several Law School and University policies, including this policy, the Law School Speech Policy, University policy PRM-008 (which addresses exterior posting and chalking), and University policy STAF-002 (which addresses student organizations). These policies are intended to provide appropriate means by which to communicate information about Law School-related events or engage in expressive activity while at the same time reducing litter and clutter, protecting the Law School building and other property, and stewarding maintenance resources.

Posting at the Law School is permitted only as described below. Posting on walls, doors, windows, chalkboards/whiteboards, furniture (e.g., chairs, tables, and benches), or other surfaces not specifically designated for posting is prohibited. This policy does not apply to employee offices. Employees with questions about decorating their offices should contact Building Services.

Regardless of location, do not remove, cover, or alter someone else’s posting, signage, or display unless (1) you have their permission or (2) you are doing so in a space that you are authorized to maintain.

For questions or concerns, contact Student Affairs if you are a student, and contact the Dean’s Office if you are not a student.

Hunton Andrews Kurth Hall Tables

The Law School provides tables in Hunton Andrews Kurth Hall that can be reserved by student organizations. A student organization with a table reservation may, for the duration of the reserved time, use tape to affix signs or displays to the table; place signs, table tents, flyers, or other displays or literature on top of the table; and place easels with signs or displays behind the table.

Event Kiosks

The Law School provides free-standing event kiosks in several locations around the building for posting notices of upcoming Law School-related events. Law School students and employees may post notices on these event kiosks on a first-come, first-served basis using push pins (not staples). Notices that are out of date, that are posted more than two weeks in advance of an event, that do not involve Law School-related events, or that do not clearly indicate the name of the sponsoring organization will be removed by Building Services.  

SBA Community Bulletin Boards

The Student Bar Association (SBA) maintains bulletin boards in Hunton Andrews Kurth Hall for use by the Law School community to post flyers for upcoming events on Grounds, general information, and advertisements. The Law School does not manage these bulletin boards, and questions about their usage should be directed to the SBA.

Administrative Bulletin Boards, Electronic Displays, and Signage

Law School administrative departments use bulletin boards, electronic displays, and other signage in various locations around the building in connection with their operations and activities. These resources are limited to use by these departments.

Student Organization Events

Student organizations may use stands to post directional or identifying signage in the vicinity of the event space on the day of their scheduled events, but they must secure advance approval from Student Affairs. Student organizations may use signs and banners or distribute literature inside their reserved spaces during their scheduled events, but they may not affix anything to walls, doors, windows, chalkboards/whiteboards, or furniture. Student organizations must comply with Space Reservation Terms and Conditions, including returning the space to its original condition at the conclusion of the event.
