An agent, vendor, or solicitor shall not be permitted on campus to distribute literature, solicit funds, or sell to faculty, staff, students, or campus organizations without specific approval by the President or an authorized designee (Board Policy 515.01, 04/13/16). An agent, vendor, or solicitor will not be allowed to sell merchandise or services to students on campus or via the College website except when sponsored by a student organization or approved by the President or authorized designee. Sponsorship by a student organization involves bearing the responsibility for the reputation of the vendor. Sponsorship by a student organization also involves the requirement of student participation in the actual selling as well as ensuring that the sponsoring student organization receives a significant portion of the receipts from sales. On-campus solicitation or other solicitations originated by students to raise funds for college-related activities may be permitted only with prior approval of the President or authorized designee. Solicitation for non-college-related activities shall not be permitted on campus except with the approval of the President or authorized designee. Charitable, tax-exempt organizations will be considered on an individual basis.
