Protocol for Departmental Flyer Approval

In order to ensure timeliness and appropriateness of the information to be distributed to the university community, all on-campus departmental organization flyers must be approved by the Office of Leadership and Civic Engagement.

  1. Must include program title, date, on-campus sponsoring organization/department, on-campus location, contact information (phone, email) for an organization representative, and type of event. Upon approval, representatives are allowed to distribute materials in designated areas and electronically via social media networks.
  2. Academic spaces where there are bulletin boards will serve as a primary facility for persons wishing to distribute printed materials.

  1. Departmental flyers may be approved through email and in-person. Flyers should be sent to the Office of Leadership and Civic Engagement email at olce@ncat.edu and given 48 hours for approval.
  2. Approved Departmental flyers should be stamped by an Office of Leadership and Civic Engagement staff member and the “approved” date stamp should be easily visible on the flyer.
  3. Hanging flyers without the “approved” date stamp are subject to be taken down and removed from academic spaces.
  4. Once stamped and approved, departments are permitted to make copies. It is not suggested for departments to make numerous copies of the flyer before it is officially approved.
  5. The Office of Leadership and Civic Engagement does not approve student organizations' flyers.
