(1) Solicitation, handbills, pamphlets, and similar materials.

(a) Anyone may personally distribute noncommercial announcements, handbills, pamphlets, or materials in any outdoor area of campus consistent with the orderly conduct of university operations, maintenance of university property, and the free flow of vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Efforts must be made to avoid litter. Solicitation, or distribution of handbills, pamphlets, and similar materials by anyone is not permitted in those areas of campus to which access by the public is restricted or where the solicitation or distribution would significantly impinge upon the primary business being conducted.

(b) No person shall place in or on any vehicle parked on the university campus, any solicitation devices.

(c) For the purposes of this chapter, the following definition applies: A "solicitation device" is any printed or written matter, sample, or device which:

(i) Advertises for sale any merchandise, product, service, or commodity; or

(ii) Directs attention, either directly or indirectly, to any business or mercantile or commercial establishment, or other activity, for the purpose of promoting an interest in sales or use; or

(iii) Directs attention to or advertises any meeting, performance, exhibition, or event of any kind, for which an admission fee is charged for the purpose of private gain or profit.

(2) Signs, posters, tables, and visual displays. To ensure that goals and objectives relating to the appearance of the campus are maintained, the university regulates the content, location, dimensions, and period of display time of posted materials. Posters must be approved by PUB administration, in accordance with university policy, prior to their placement in any campus location. Specific regulations are available to the public in the PUB administration office. An individual or organization must reserve space within a facility before setting up a table in such location.
