Chalking of sidewalks is a means of expression. It may be used in many ways, including to announce programs, promote events, exchange opinions, share messages, and otherwise express ideas. This policy is designed to permit sidewalk chalking while also advancing important university interests, including but not limited to ensuring campus safety, safeguarding entrances and exits to and from university facilities, protecting University property and facilities, and maintaining the aesthetic appeal of campus.

For the complete policy regarding chalking on campus visit the Operations Manual. Please see below here for a map of approved outdoor chalking locations. View PDF

Another informal chalking opportunity is available on the Chalk Talk chalkboard in the IMU. Individuals and/or student organizations may write messages, quotes, or other information on the Chalk Talk boards. Boards are cleaned by IMU staff weekly. The Chalk Talk board is located in The Chalk Talk Lounge on Ground Floor.
