Registered Student Organizations (RSOs), ASUW and GPSS may use water-soluble, non-aerosol chalk on campus concrete or asphalt walkways to advertise their campus events. Chalk may not be used on brick, stone or marble walkways or any vertical surfaces (i.e., building walls, poles, public art, stairways, fences, etc.). The RSO name must be included in all chalked announcements.

Student organizations may be disciplined and/or fined for violations of this policy. Fines will be levied based on the labor and materials needed to remove chalk by the UW Facilities Maintenance staff. Student organizations will be notified about chalking violations according to the Conduct & Discipline Policy.
