The University prides itself on being a dry campus. There is a double standard if it allows the publicizing of an event held elsewhere with the same problem it is trying to keep off the campus.
College is known for being the place to actively practice the right to freedom of speech. But how are we as a college campus supposed to express our free speech rights with absurdly strict regulations on putting up posters and flyers?
The Student Center, a place to relax and a vital part of the school community, is the heart, soul and billboard of ULV. Without it, where else would Top Gun and Goober known how special they are this week? Where else would big sis and li’l sis get to greet one another? Where else would the pep squad get to congratulate a team?
Whether they like it or not, students who want to put up signs around campus are required to have them approved and stamped by the workers at the Student Center desk.
