Question

Prohibited Messages

Answer

Prohibited Messages

• Political campaign messages of any kind -- university, local, state, or national.
• Off-campus commercial messages.
• Any promotion of alcohol or tobacco.
• Fundraisers, with the exception of KSU Foundation or K-State Alumni Association coordinated or university approved events.
• Personal messages (ex: birthday wishes, congratulations).
• Messages inconsistent with K-State policies as well as local, state and federal law.
• Naming of commercial sponsorships for events or activities with the exception of Tier I members.
• Messages that compete with university services and contracted businesses.
• The Message Board Consortium reserves the right to prohibit additional messages on a case-by-case basis when it comes to controversial or sensitive issues. The Consortium Edit Committee will decide on any messages with questionable content. Any appeal beyond that point would be directed to the office of the Vice President of Communications and Marketing, or its designee.
