RE:           2013 Campaign Posting Locations
DATE:       April 2, 2013

District Administrative Procedure 3900: Speech—Time, Place, and Manner states, “Students who engage in election activities affiliated with the Associated Student Government shall refer to The Constitution of the Associated Students of MiraCosta College for guidance on permissive campaigning activities.”  In addition to the campaigning requirements outlined in Article VI.F, the following locations are authorized by the Vice President of Student Services for posting campaign banners and signs:

POSTING

Please note the following:

• Do not post on glass.
• Do not post on doors.
• With the exception of the CLC, no posting within buildings.
• Be sure to only use painters tape or non-stick stucco tape.
• Lawn signs are permitted along the edge of (between) grass and concrete spaces.
• Posters are not to exceed 11X17 inches, and banners not to exceed 3X5 feet. 

DISTRIBUTION OF LITERATURE

The distribution of campaign literature is permitted throughout each of the three campus sites if it is, “… unlikely to significantly interfere with and/or disrupt college operations …” (AP3900, p.1).  The Vice President of Student Services has interpreted this to mean outdoor external spaces only, with the exception of the Community Learning Center.  Please know that you can certainly represent your candidacy to specific groups and organizations that may convene within a District building, at which time you can provide campaign materials; however distribution of literature to the general campus population within a District building is prohibited.

Please call Jim Gonzales at (760) 795-6899 if you have any questions.
