In Oklahoma college dorms, signs of free speech

→Murray State College in Tishomingo: The college’s policies and procedures handbook includes an item that does not allow the use of mobile or stationary amplified sound systems for political purposes on campus grounds and streets.

→Rose State College in Midwest City: College spokeswoman Natalie Jordan said all signs must be stamped "approved for posting” by the college’s Office of Student Activities. These signs should only be posted on bulletin boards, Jordan said. The posting of signs is primarily used by on-campus organizations.

→Cameron University in Lawton: Jana Gowan, director of community relations, said there is an on-campus policy about posting signs. However, she said that policy does not regulate what students post in their individual residences.

→Oklahoma State University in Stillwater: The OSU Student Government Association said, "If a student wants to show their support for a candidate by placing campaign materials on the space they are personally responsible for, cars, dorm room doors, dorm room windows, backpacks, or T-shirts we think that is entirely up to them. Telling them not to express their support on their own time is a violation of their rights. At the same time though, we feel like campaign advertisements in common campus areas are unnecessary, they simply clutter the sight line and make for a less enjoyable campus.”
