Guidelines and Policies Events Requiring Approval: Films
Films may be shown on the University campus that generate funds or are free of charge. Should an organization want to show an X-rated or un-rated film, the organization must download and complete a Miscellaneous Event Registration form. The Student Organization Advisor and President's signature on this form indicates their understanding that the presentation of the particular film may violate local, state, or federal law relative to pandering obscenity (Pandering Obscenity-2907.32 of the Ohio Revised Code).
Films on videotape and/or DVD that are rented from local video rental stores are for home use only. Public showing of tapes and/or DVDs rented in this manner violates copyright law and subjects the sponsoring organization to possible civil and/or criminal action. Fund raisers of this type are not permitted on campus.
Contact Campus Life in 355 Baker University Center, 593-4025 for information on purchasing the rights to show a film.
