No items are allowed to remain as a display at the conclusion of an event unless a member of the student organization remains with the items for the duration of the display. In addition, no holes may be dug in the ground or drilled into the wall for the purpose of such displays. Any item displayed at a student organization event must be on a stand or platform, or freestanding on the ground. Items cannot be draped or placed on campus benches, as that would interfere with the intended usage of those items.
